testimonials

After just one session with Amanda I felt I have a much better understanding of my daughter’s relationship with food. I thought I just had a fussy eater. In fact Amanda helped me to see that eating was a way that my four and half year old was exerting independence and control. She came up with some practical suggestions which have been effective, and helped me to see the issue from a different perspective.

I have had extensive problems dealing with my son's extreme fussiness with eating. It was just that- fussiness, nothing more. Amanda was able to come up with a workable written plan with me to combat this. Whilst I wouldn't say my son is now an adventurous eater , he definitely is eating more of a variety of foods and high quality foods such as fruits and vegetables. Amanda's input was invaluable in this. Her holistic approach involved removing the grandparents from the food equation (they let my son dictate) whilst ensuring full support was given at the nursery he attended. Thank you!

Amanda has offered her patience, kindness, support, and knowledgeable expertise in helping our son develop. She has an amazing array of knowledge, looking into each individual child's needs and offering emotional and wellbeing strategies to develop his sense of the world. I would highly recommend her as a therapist to any parent considering therapy for their child, especially those searching for care that offers professionalism as well as innovative, progressive strategies.
