What people have to say about us

"Fantastic experience - Emma has been very approachable ever since our first meeting. Her professionalism, as well as knowledge and its application to what our sons needs has been excellent. Sensory processing issues and sensory integration is complex but Emma has a brilliant way of getting this across in a way that is clear and understandable."

"Joy has been a great addition to our multi-disciplinary team. Her knowledge and expertise has been truly valued. She has upskilled staff and empowered them to be able to deliver high quality interventions for our pupils. We look forward to working with her again this academic year!"

"As a speech and language therapist working with individuals with complex needs, it is difficult to find highly trained specialists in the area of sensory integration - we've definitely found that in Juniper Tree Therapy. It has been wonderful working together with the joint aim of empowering staff to build communication into OT activities and vice versa. The difference to children's access to activities, learning and interaction speaks for itself and we continue to learn so much from Emma and Nick."
