Testimonials

  • Melanie List for all her time, dedication, amazing knowledge and effort she has given me, having helped me all she could and has made me into a very knowledgeable changed person. Melanie also has a wonderful calm and gentle approach, and any manager should be proud to have her on their team.

  • I just wanted to highlight some strong practice from Scott Nichol. Scott’s approach was strengths based, firm with the family and professionals, and with compassion for the difficult situation in which the family find themselves. He advocated for the needs of the children …. It is evident he has made good progress with this family.
