Bridging The Gap
Support for Autistic Children And Their Parents
Face-to-face and online support available in Cambridge, Peterborough, Newmarket, Stamford, Huntingdon, Melbourn, Sawston, Bury St Edmunds, Stowmarket, Norfolk & Suffolk.
Many parents struggle with their children’s challenging behaviour. Whether this is part of an autistic diagnosis or not, family life can be difficult. We're here to help you by providing practical support, information and resources.
What is the Service?
We offer a coaching service for Autistic children and their parents. Even if there is no diagnosis parents often have concerns. Any parent struggling to understand their child’s challenging behaviour can access this unique support. Our specially trained team will meet the parent(s) and child, to decide whether our service can be of help.
The counsellors who deliver this service have received additional awareness and skills training that enables them to work effectively with clients who are Autistic.
Contact us to register.
A member of our specialist team will meet with you the parent(s) to better understand the difficulties you and your child are experiencing. This helps us decide if we are the right agency to support you longer term. We will then see your child, either on their own or with you if that’s more comfortable. This way we are able to get a full picture of your situation.
How to get started
We have developed this service with the generous support from MIND.
When you start your coaching sessions
Once you start coaching ( after the assessments) it will involve a series of 8 regular weekly, 50 minute sessions.
When will this coaching service help?
Managing a child with challenging behaviour can be very upsetting and disruptive for the whole family. Whether diagnosed or not, our specialist team are here to support you through the process.
How much will it Cost?
We have a limited offer of up to 2 free initial meetings, due to the generous support from MIND.
Our standard charges are: Each initial assessment costs £80 (there are two, one with the parent(s) which can be online and one involving the child which is face to face. If ongoing coaching is agreed, each weekly session will also cost £80. All the resources, including a bespoke workbook are free.
