If a client requires Full Support-level care or significantly more time, discuss this during booking. Pricing may be adjusted and scheduling options offered to ensure both clients receive calm, thorough attention without rushing.

Yes. Duo appointments take place in a quiet, private space with reduced stimuli, predictable routines, and staff trained in sensory strategies to create a safe, structured experience for each family.

Children receive a small, sensory-friendly reward included with the appointment for positive participation. Parents may opt out or bring a preferred item; just let us know during booking so we can accommodate preferences.
