Book an assessment

Our team is based in the heart of Shirley, Solihull, in a convenient High Street location that is easy to access while still offering a calm and welcoming retreat from the pace of everyday life.

Our clinic is a comfortable, homely space designed to help you feel relaxed from the moment you arrive. As you step inside, we aim to provide an environment that feels safe, private, and unhurried. Friendly staff will be on hand to greet you and help you feel at ease as you begin your journey with us.

We have an excellent facility that accommodates the needs of all age groups. There is an adult therapy lounge and a space ideal for encouraging children and young people to express themselves creatively.
