Telephone and online consultations
Telephone consultations are available as an alternative to face-to-face meetings; but do not replace a full behavioural assessment.
To be as helpful as I can, and establish what you are struggling with, the first 10 minute informal chat is free. We then agree what further support and advice you will need. This is charged by the amount of time given and resources provided. Ongoing online and telephone support sessions can also be booked, using a variety of media. £45-50 per session.
“I think we now understand that he (Max) was anxious and not a cheeky teenager wanting attention. Max seemed to be a happy dog today.”
