Although 2 days a week is usually our minimum working time, we can accommodate a gradual “building up to” this minimum level in some cases for those finishing study/other roles or for those who want to “try” the role to see if it fits, including offering evening/Sat morn appointments for a while to work around other positions if needed.The bulk of this time will be 1:1 therapy work with children and teens from 4 to 18 years old (and their families).
