"I
have found her excellent help and support, able
to offer a wide range of counselling therapies
and to have a unique insight into the problems
faced by teenagers..."
Dr
G.D Kewley (Consultant)Learning
Assesment Centre Horsham
"Prior
to counselling sessions with Nancy, his self
esteem was at an extremely low ebb. He dealt
with most situations in a very agressive manner,
was totally impulsive, and completely unaware of
people's feelings."
"Repeated appointments with Psychiatrists, Psychologists
and consultants failed to help my son. In fact
he would leave these sessions in a very
stressed, anxious and aggresive state. He would
dwell on things that he had got wrong in the
past, and felt unable to move on and leave it
all behind."
"Since counselling sessions at 'The Studio', I have
seen many positive changes in my son. He has
recommenced his medication and has noticed the
difference in himself." He has started a
new job ...setting himself new goals.......more
aware of his actions on the people around him,
and will readily apologise. This is something
very new"
Helen
Mahoney (Mother)
"Together with other young men with similar difficulties,
my son has participated in workshops and video
sessions at The Studio, which has helped with
his self esteem. He has come to realise that he
is not alone, not a freak, but an intelligent
human being who has a lot to give back…
Nancy's therapy sessions do not dwell on the
past, but offer motivation, recognition of
personal skills and qualities, and enable young
men like my son to believe in themselves."

Charlton (Parent and Trustee)
"This organisation (The Studio) fills a very important
gap in provision. It provides a variety of
psychological treatment for teenagers and young
adults up to the age of 25. The interventions
offered include dealing with difficult emotions,
dealing with practical problems that require
organisation, and handling relationships. The
psychological techniques used have been
demonstrated as appropriate for individuals with
ADHD"
Dr.
Q.Spender MB.DCH. MRCP. MRCPsych
"Mrs Williams undertook work with this individual and
his family, providing support, advocacy, helping
him to understand his condition, and providing a
place in which he could meet other young people
with similar needs. In my opinion she was an
essential component in this individual's
rehabilitation….. As case manager it is my
opinion that there is a clear need for the
provision of a service specifically aimed at
young people with ADHD, assisting them and their
families. Such a specialised service, which can
be targeted at those in need and contribute
towards a risk reduction strategy, is currently
not available in any other form"……
Case
Manager. West Sussex Probation. August 2001
"My
husband and I took our 12 year old son to The
Studio believing he was cursed with ADHD and we
all left with a different perspective of the
condition, realising his potential, and
understanding the positive aspects of having
ADHD."

Mother
