Testimonials

"I thought it was superb. So relevant. There were too many useful bits to name them all. I have also made a conscious effort to breathe deeply and slowly on the School pick up. It was also useful to think in terms of will something matter in five years time. Finally, it was reassuring when you reiterated that it is not useful to compare our kids to secure birth children as adopted children are different."
