Testimonials

What do our customers think?

“It was helpful to understand the science. It has troubled me in my 18 years of social work that tests are not always reliable and the consequences can be life changing for children and families.”

“This training session has been so helpful and should be mandatory for all Social Workers /  Family Court Advisors / Family Solicitors; given how much weight is often placed on such results. Thank you so much for providing this.”
