Helping families translate assessment findings into everyday strategies shapes how I work. In my Gisborne clinic, conducted in English, sessions are calm, focused and practical, usually face-to-face with parents and children. Assessments combine structured tasks, developmental history and lived observation, while therapy uses reflective conversation and guided parent–child interactions, with clear tasks and feedback between appointments to try at home and at school. This way of working suits caregivers seeking grounded, emotionally aware guidance alongside clear, actionable steps.
