About Sarah
Sarah’s personal journey began alongside her sister, who faced significant special needs and medical challenges.
This early and ongoing exposure gives Sarah a deep understanding of the unique struggles faced by children with SEN, as well as the profound effects on their families – especially siblings.
Sarah, is a qualified practitioner in Drawing and Talking and Sand Play. With over 25 years of experience, she has honed her skills as a teaching assistant, specialising in working with SEN children.
Driven by a noticeable decline in the mental health and well-being of children and young people, Sarah established SEMH Support.
Sarah is deeply committed to nurturing the ‘whole-child’, focusing on emotional well-being, mental health, and self-esteem.
