Daniel Cumber Psychology is primarily a consultation-led service. Consultation provides structure and opportunity for adults to explore what will help a child or young person to access the learning and social opportunities that are available in their setting. Consultation is...
a means [discussion] of being able to consider and apply appropriate psychological theory and understanding with parents and teachers where there are concerns about a child. The aim of the consultation is to reach a better understanding of the child and their situation, and develop an agreed plan to improve the situation, with the intention of enhanced outcomes at home and at school (Nolan & Moreland, 2014).
