I Straker Consultants have made the decision to bridge the gap and support children’s services. Over the years we have received daily enquiries into this and have made a decision to start providing this service.
Our assessments will take place in a specialist sensory appropriate space that is specifically designed for children who are neurodiverse, supporting their needs and comfort
The assessments will take between 90 – 120 minutes and will include a parents/guardians input.
The full cost of the assessment is £490.
In order to support the assessment we will require:
- An assessment of their parents' or carers' mental health in line with NICE guidelines
- Letter and reports from teachers and/or school including observations
- GP summery
- Social service reports and summary where applicable
- Conners' rating scales for child and parent
- Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire
With the above and a full assessment, we will collate this information as an MDT and discuss in order to give a clear report which will include a directive letter for your educational environment with a breakdown of specific needs in order for the support to be implemented for your child.
In addition to this we provide a one point contact with our team who is our parent lead. They will support parents therapeutically through the process, guide them about expectations and difficulties making what is without doubt an emotional journey a little bit easier. We will additionally be developing support and therapeutic groups for parents.
Following a diagnosis we will provide treatment with a pathway into shared care – this is charged separately.
