Vicki has provided my family with support through play at a difficult period in our lives.
Through the play sessions we have been able to reconect, communicate and have fun as well as address some underlying problems / issues within our relationships.
It has also provided me with a better understanding of my own needs and relationship with the wider family.
Thank you

Vicky supported our daughter and my entire family for over 3 years of her cancer treatment, from new diagnosis at the age of 4 - 7. Vicky had an immediate and transformational impact on Vanessa's ability to express herself through play, and to cope with her hardship of treatment. Thanks to Vicky, Vanessa quickly learned how to get through her radiotherapy and long MRI scans without sedation, which is remarkable for a 5 year old and would have been unthinkable without Vicky's help. She explained to my wife and I the anxieties that all my daughters would be feeling and invested significant time building relationships with my older daughter, who she even went to collect from school on regular occasions to build a close bond. Alongside our Oncologist, Vicky has been the most important person in my daughter's treatment. We were so excited when she was recognised at Play Specialist of the year - never was a reward more deserving. Any family in Vicky's care will find her to be the brightest shining light during a time of great darkness. And years later we still miss seeing her.

Vicki has been working with my family since November 2020 when we were in the throes of losing my wife / their mother. She established a trusting relationship with my 2 boys and helped me and my wife with telling them about her illness. They knew she had cancer but not aware of the outcome. Vicki has continued to support the boys by visiting when appropriate to their needs. Sometimes this was weekly, sometimes fortnightly and we are slowly moving to only holiday time. She has even Skyped on a couple of occasions when we have been away.
Vicki has always been there for both myself and my boys, allowing them to process their thoughts and feelings in their own time and providing both normal and therapeutically appropriate activities for trying times.

‘Vicki's service has been great for myself and my daughter. She offered me a 15 minute telephone appointment to discuss my concerns and followed up with an hour consultation / assessment with myself and my 6 year old daughter. Vicki recommended 6 sessions of developmental play to begin with and reviewed this at week 4. We took a break from Vicki's service but put into action the strategies, games and techniques Vicki had put in place. Vicki came back for a further 4 sessions to see how things had developed. As i had built in confidence and my daughter and I were having fun, developing our imagination and skills, the play sessions with Vicki came to a natural end. Knowing that i would be offered a block of play sessions in advance, allowed me to know how much i was paying and the time scale.

I found Vicki via Google and called her to discuss my young daughter. What i was asking for, Vicki could not provide, she is aware of her boundaries and professional capabilities. Vicki did spend time giving advice on who I could contact for support and help for my daughter. She had the knowledge of other professionals which I have found really helpful and have now found someone to support my daughter.
I am wriing this testimonal because Vicki didnt have to help and she could have ended our call quickly but she did, of which i am very thankful and so would recommend her and her services which sound amazing for the right child of family.
