Cherry works with peo­ple to help them max­imise their indi­vid­ual potential. She does this by building a pos­i­tive rela­tion­ship in order to set up a safe secure place to explore abil­i­ties and any chal­lenges or con­cerns that may impact on achiev­ing goals and liv­ing a full and mean­ing­ful life. 

Work­ing with you, Cherry will cre­ate a plan on how to build capac­i­ty and deliv­er ther­a­py. To make sure there is a holis­tic under­stand­ing Woollybutt Specialist Services will con­sult, with con­sent, with oth­er impor­tant peo­ple such as fam­i­ly, friends, employ­ers or caregivers.
