We are delighted to be back working with all of the DSPL2 schools for our second academic year! A big thank you to all the staff who made and make us feel so welcome each time we enter your schools to offer therapy, parent training and staff forums. Some of our favourite moments have been watching children struggle to access the national curriculum fully; due to their own mental health difficulties and then find relief in using creative arts therapies. After on average 8 sessions, they have gone on to flourish and grow in all aspects of their social, emotional and cognitive development.
The laughter and tears shared in parent trainings has left us humbled and touched to be working with so many families.
Welcome George Fisher to our team!
