"Just wanted to say thankyou for this report as it is the only report that we have received about X that really does capture all of him, all of his unique qualities and challenges and specifically the support he needs going forward."
Parent
"We are so very grateful for the accuracy of your report and your professionalism. Your experience and expertise were evident throughout. Your ability to connect with and engage our daughter to assess and speak up for her also reflected that. You saw our little girl for who she really is and all that we are incredibly proud if, where others have not… Different but not any less valuable shone through in a clearly child focussed experience. We cannot recommend your services enough.”
Parent
"I honestly cannot thank you enough for this report...For the first time in this entire process, X felt heard and seen. X now sees the light at the end of the tunnel, you've given X a voice.
You have illustrated all of X's needs and struggles and worded it in such a way that any professional reading it will get a strong sense of who X is."
Parent
"You have assessed two of my children over the past few years and your reports and expert opinion has been paramount for both of them...Honestly without your reports...our children's needs would have continued to be played down. They are now both happy, safe and in the right settings to meet their needs..."
Parent
"I just want to say how impressed I was with you and your ability to talk to X...and see past her masking, she enjoyed the way you structured it. You seemed to really get her and understand her. It was such a nice change."
Parent
"Upon meeting you, I could tell how passionate you were about your work and this showed in the very detailed and thorough report you created. I'm very pleased with how you listened and understood the situation we were in and gave such detail in what X would need to thrive in education again."
Parent
'Paul has assessed my child twice over the past few years. The first report enabled us to get a quality EHCP, and the second supported us in securing an EOTAS package through the Tribunal process. Both reports were highly complimented by everyone I shared them with, and they were perfect for the legal processes they were intended for.
Paul was very knowledgeable, sensitive and insightful about my child's difficulties and needs in his interactions with them, and in his conversations with me and other professionals involved.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend his services '

“I wanted to share some great news and to thank you again for the assessment and report you provided for our daughter’s tribunal which took place last week. We are so pleased that the tribunal ordered that the EHC plan be reinstated.
Your report was hugely influential in this decision and we are so very grateful. As parents, we often feel that the person described by many professionals isn’t reflective of our daughter and this can be so very frustrating and has often resulted in us questioning our very real experiences. After reading your report, it was so reassuring for someone to have a true reflection of our daughter and her strengths and challenges.”
