Preparation

A key part of the work we do is supporting children and parents with reintroducing children and a parent they have not spent time with or where there is an issue with how to do that. 

Perhaps the separation was very difficult and the parents couldn't agree, or maybe there was significant domestic abuse, or parents health matters. There are lot's of reasons, but we can help children and parents navigate this. Get in touch!
