Beanstalk Children's Therapy"I am extremely impressed with the Beanstalk clinic & Lara Breaker-Rolfe. We have been asking for intervention for our son for years, post adoption arranged for J to be assessed & we feel he/we are finally getting the help we need. I am so impressed with Lara’s service, as soon as we were referred, the appointments got made & progress started to happen, great communication & no delays & very consistent which children need. I felt Lara understood my son straight away & his needs & is so good with him. He enjoys coming & looks forward to coming to see her. Thank you."

Parent
Beanstalk Children's Therapy"The detailed Beanstalk assessments and extensive clinical reports have exceeded my expectations and lifted a huge weight off my shoulders as I now know how to better support my 6 year old twins. As their mum, I always felt there was more going on and Beanstalk listened to my concerns and had extensive understanding and different levels of assessing my children’s special needs. With their help, local professionals are taking this more seriously now and hopefully my boys will get the correct support. Also, I am now more confident to begin the process of moving the boys from mainstream school to special school to better support their needs."
Parent
Beanstalk Children's Therapy"My 3 year old son has benefited from Occupational Therapy over the last 6 months. He looks forward to his tailor made sessions with great enthusiasm."
Parent
Beanstalk Children's Therapy"Beanstalk was initially recommended to us when our son was suspected of having sensory related challenges, such that we didn't recognise the child being described to us - it was the COVID lockdown that exemplified the issues our son was struggling with. Beanstalk undertook an assessment and combined with a suggested programme of support has been fantastic. A combination of support, sessions and therapeutic listening has been of enormous benefit and we are seeing such positive changes and will continue to work with Beanstalks in order to support our son."
Parent
Beanstalk Children's Therapy"Lara has built up a great rapport with my 10 year old client with Cerebral Palsy. She has made therapy fun and has achieved great results."
Case Manager
Beanstalk Children's Therapy"Beanstalk has changed our family’s life. My children have had their Autism completely missed by school and all professionals involved in their care. As such they have suffered tremendously. I deliberated for months about a private assessment; compared different companies and what they offered, before deciding to go ahead with Beanstalk. I made sure Beanstalk assessments were carried out by a multidisciplinary team and as such a recognised diagnosis. It has been the best decision, and I’m so grateful to the team. I had lots of questions prior to booking and was always replied to straight away, nothing was too much trouble. The ADI-R paediatrician interview prior to assessment was so in-depth and every detail was recorded in the report."
Parent
Beanstalk Children's Therapy"The support and the sessions have been really helpful and have benefitted our child enormously, we are seeing real positive changes - it was just annoying that COVID prevented our starting with you earlier."
Parent
Beanstalk Children's Therapy"Beanstalk Therapy have helped both my children to learn to regulate and improve their concentration. We have seen huge differences in the boys behaviour in the 3 months since we started coming for regular sessions. After all of our struggles, thank you for making my children a delight to be around."
Parent
Beanstalk Children's Therapy"My son had a comprehensive occupational therapy assessment at Beanstalk Children's Therapy in December 2014. He is on the autistic spectrum and throughout the whole assessment process he was reassured and put at ease. The full OT report we received was completed in a great level of detail and has helped us, as a family, to understand and make accommodations for both his diagnosis of sensory processing disorder and motor co-ordination difficulties. Above all, his school have found the report extremely beneficial in terms of differentiating the PE curriculum for him."

Parent
Beanstalk Children's Therapy"After the assessment, I had verbal feedback and a chance to ask questions. I was shocked at the tiny details that had been picked up in the short space of time. The report was back within 2 weeks and completely invaluable with its findings and recommendations. I am able to understand my children so much better now, the schools too. The correct support is now being put in place and I’m finally feeling positive for their futures."

Beanstalk Children's Therapy"There were appointments almost straight away, a vast improvement compared to the 3+ year NHS waiting list. Beanstalk's building was bright and airy. My children are highly anxious so I was relieved to be able to wait in the building. The OT, SALT and paediatrician carrying out the assessment were friendly and welcoming, making the experience a really positive one - my daughter said it was the best day of her life!"

Beanstalk Children's Therapy"Fantastic service. We've been waiting years for answers to questions that we've had about our child's development. Even comments made during the very comprehensive assessment have already helped us to understand things just that little bit more. After years of battling to get help, we're at last making progress. We'd rate this service highly."
