From me

I'm Dr Lucy Russell, a child clinical psychologist with over 20 years of clinical experience. Friendship skills are learned, and every child picks them up at their own pace. I suggest working on one skill at a time, and keeping it fun.

"Lucy took great care to listen to us carefully, identify the issues and help us understand our son's behaviour."Parent at Lucy's Clinic, Everlief Child Psychology
