The emphasis of the work we undertake at Spring Garden Consultancy is to focus on the solution, not the problem. We adopt a ‘CAN DO’ approach to all our work no matter how complex.

We guarantee a swift response to all enquiries. Our Solution Focussed approach has been used successfully in a variety of difficult and dangerous situations. From assessments to intervention we provide a complete and confidential service both in the UK and Internationally.

Our Solution Focussed approach looks to the future, not the past. We don’t dwell on what has gone wrong our focus is on moving forward.

Being engulfed in problems makes it hard to see through the fog, even though we know what we don’t want we find it hard to work out what we do want.

Our approach is to discover what might be possible and to assist you to your preferred future.  Only then do we explore the past and present, not for what has gone wrong but to draw on the experiences and determine the available resources that may be the basis of a future foundation.

“It is not uncommon when someone feels weighed down by a problem for them to lose sight of their strengths and capabilities. Rediscovering them at a time of greatest need is one of the best steps towards resolving problems.” (BRIEF Therapy Practice)

The Brief Therapy Practice has conducted two follow-up studies which show 80% of clients report a lasting change in their lives. This fits with other studies from around the world and shows solution focused therapy to be at least as effective as longer term therapy.

We have over 30 years experience in our areas of expertise.

INNOCENT CHILDREN MURDERED BY MUM
Child Protection Expert Kenn Griffiths writes:

Luca, Austin and Cecilia Riggi have apparently been murdered by their 46 year old mother Theresa.

What state of mind must she have been in to have taken the precious lives of her birth children?

First reports indicate a marital and child custody dispute. Of course, unfortunately these tragic deaths are not the first. At the time of the Moat killings, in the village of Holbrook Derbyshire Dad Andrew Cairns stabbed to death his partner Rachel Slack and their 23 month old son Auden (see mychildcontact.com blogspot earlier report of 4th June 2010).

There are many similar reports and it seems as though violence is becoming the norm to solve child custody disputes.

All this comes at a time when the Government is responding to a Family Justice System under enormous strain by:

• Capping the fees Independent Social Workers thereby undermining the important role ISW’s have in ensuring that children and families can have a independent professional voice to challenge finance driven Local Authority Social Care workers
• And secondly, causing the loss of almost half of the Family Law firms because of the Legal Aid Commission’s decision not to award them new contracts, in an effort to cut costs.

Without doubt, these decisions will seriously affect the welfare and safety of vulnerable children and disadvantaged families.

At mychildcontact.com we are actively seeking the appointment of a Minister with sole responsibility for Child Contact, Access and Custody and challenging poor decision making. You can help in this by letting your MP know the serious consequences of the Government’s actions.
