I qualified as a social worker in 1996 and have a diverse range of experience and skills. I have completed post qualifying social work training and worked at the highest level of social work as a ‘Principal Social Worker’, in a Local Authority. I am committed to raising the profile of social work and promoting high quality service delivery. I have devised and deliver training to social workers and social care staff in a practical manner using real life practice examples to optimise the learning and development of participants. I enjoy working with private clients and empowering them to improve their quality of lives or that of their loved ones.
Utilising my diverse experience, knowledge and skills spanning over decades I offer a range of professional independent social work services.
Practical, confidential and affordable support and advice during what can be an incredibly difficult and overwhelming time. I am a highly qualified professional and committed to helping you navigate the complexities of an arbitrary divorce and/or childcare dispute with the utmost care and sensitivity. By working closely with you and your loved ones, I strive to minimise the emotional and financial costs that are often associated with these types of situations. My goal is to provide you with the guidance and resources that you need to make informed decisions, while also ensuring that your rights and interests are protected. You can count on me to be there for you every step of the way, offering compassionate support and expert advice when you need it most.
Are you caring for elderly relatives, a friend, or a family member and unclear on social care systems and processes?
Do you want to plan for the future needs of those of a loved one but not sure where to start?
Would you like more support than social services can provide or interested in gaining an independent social work opinion?
“Susan was very caring and sympathetic, a good listener, also gave me some positive advice and gave me a little encouragement and help to push on with things I needed to get sorted after my sister died. I was in a bad place mentally and so exhausted her help and advice and calm nature was a massive help.”
