Feedback

“Having first contacted Sarah and HTT UK back in 2015  she has provided knowledge and guidance with an abundance of enthusiasm to me as a Child Psychologist and as a mum. I was looking to set up delivering HTT on the NHS and she offered that I attended one of her first groups in Edinburgh. I was instantly hooked on the techniques as a mum and how they could help parents struggling with children whose mental health had lead to being referred to services. Sarah has remained in contact, offering advice and encouragement since then. From that first contact I have now set up and run 5 courses as part of a child's mental health team, where significant change has been feedback and measured. These skills make a difference. Getting involved with Sarah's courses will be invaluable and change how you see and manage your children (and your partners and friends!). You will also benefit from Sarah's years of experience and in-depth knowledge.”
