Advice and Support
Only some people who come to us are ready for a formal assessment and therapy. At Helping Kids Shine, we will do our best to support everyone we talk to. We are always willing to signpost to resources and other services that may provide the support being asked for, even at the question stage.
If people are a match to work with Helping Kids Shine and become clients, we very much value our role in providing advice and support, and we ensure that we are with each family for every step of their journey with us.
We typically cover a 1.5 hour driving radius from the Helping Kids Shine base (CF32 9RE). We do stretch out to the tip of West Wales (Milford Haven/Fishguard) as we recognise that there are few therapy services that cover this area.
Yes we have a waiting list. Following a Discovery Session, if we are a match to work together, we will invite you to join our waiting list. When our therapists have upcoming availability, we will contact you to arrange the booking in of your appointments.
This varies and very much depends on the needs of the young person, the family, whether they need expert evidence for tribunal, etc. Each person who speaks to us will receive an individualised quote, based on the needs of the young person.
