Testimonials

Play Therapy with Lynn had an immediate positive impact on our son, for the first time in a very long time he looked forward to going to school, felt listened to and began to understand why he had been feeling unhappy and what he could do to feel better. He absolutely loved his play therapy sessions and said he wished he could do it every day.

My son has additional needs and has a diagnosis of Developmental Language Disorder he struggles with communication Lynn has been working with him for 18 months he absolutely loves his play therapy and looks forward to seeing Lynn every week in the time they have been working together he has build such a special bond with Lynn. It is lovely that he feels he has a safe space to talk about anything he may have on his mind. I can not recommend Lynn enough she goes above and beyond, if there’s any family issues we have going on I’m able to let her know and my son can talk to her. Lynn is fantastic with communication, i’m always able to reach and discuss anything I need to with her.

I had not felt as if any professional had truly ’seen’ my autistic child till she worked with Lynn. My daughter benefited greatly from her therapy with Lynn over the 6 months they worked together. I would not hesitate in recommending Lynn to any parent.

Charlotte, Parent

Having Lynn’s service at our school was extremely beneficial for our students. She was able to build children’s self confidence and self esteem, we highly recommend her services to schools and parents.
