Testimonials

At nurture child and adolescent therapy we feel so privileged that we are in a position to help the children and teens that use our services realise their true potential and to support them as they grow throughout our sessions in both strength and confidence. Below are a few words received from some of our clients:

‘We had the pleasure of having Sarah working with us in Carlow Educate Together National School conducting Play Therapy sessions both on a one-on-one basis and small groups. The children that attended the sessions loved going to Sarah in the therapy space and we saw great benefits in terms of confidence, self-esteem and social skills. Sarah is kind, empathic and professional, I would highly recommend her services and look forward to continuing to work with her.’

‘As a parent, when I knew that my child needed extra support, I felt like a failure. In my first meeting with Sarah, I was put at ease about the whole situation and felt stronger for recognising that my child needed the support. Although my child went in hesitantly, he came out smiling, asking when he could go back. Throughout the weeks he grew in confidence and was a much happier child. The bond he formed with Sarah was amazing. I would not hesitate in recommending Sarah as a therapist. Thank you, Sarah, for everything you did for my family.’

‘Our daughter aged 8 completed 8 sessions of play therapy with Sarah. She really enjoyed her sessions and looked forward to them every week. Sarah was very kind and empathetic towards our daughter and there was a definite improvement in her behaviour after attending. Sarah also gave us great tips and advice on how to deal with challenging behaviours and prevent them going forward. We would definitely recommend Sarah as a play therapist.’

‘I found Sarah to be very warm and inviting with both myself and my child, he was nervous to begin with but after the first day he couldn’t wait to go back each week. My child attended an anxiety group with Sarah as I noticed he had lost a lot of confidence with the school closures around covid. I found a huge improvement in him after attending the group, his confidence seemed so much better and it eased him back in to school nicely. I would recommend Sarah to anyone, Thanks again for everything.’

It is with much enthusiasm and confidence that I recommend the services of Nurture Child and Adolescent Therapy. We recently invited Sarah who owns the service to our Montessori to work with parents of children who will be transitioning to primary school. Nurture Child and Adolescent Therapy attended our Montessori and facilitated our parents with one-on-one meetings in doing this it meant all parents could attend. Sarah's knowledge and expertise meant that she could discuss and advise on any impromptu topics that arose. Her conscientious manner made parents feel comfortable and at ease. Having previously worked in the early years sector gives Sarah a unique perspective in relation to understanding the process of transition and early years experiences. We here at Myshall Montessori and Afterschool were delighted with her service and fully intend to use it again.
