I am currently using a dedicated therapy room which offers confidentiality and privacy, see photos below (therapy dogs Maisey & Bowie are available upon request and love a snuggle). I am located in a quiet, discrete cul-de-sac just two minutes from the local railway station and bus stop. Off road parking on the driveway is available.
Maisey & Bowie welcome you.
