Hello! We're new to the area...

Applied Psychologies are new to the York and surrounding areas but we're not new. We've been serving schools from Liverpool to Hull and more recently in Teesside for 11 years. Due to our growth in North Yorkshire we now have capacity in Selby and other York surrounding areas.

We'd love to meet you and see how we can help you, your young people and their families. We're available for service level agreements (SLAs) from September 2024.

Book in for your free consultation. It's one consultation per invited school and the consultation cannot discuss named children as we have no parental signatures.

What's a consultation?

Consultations are short but effective. Speak one-to-one with an EP, to gain a psychological perspective on any topic or issue that is pertinent to your work in school. This could be anything from how to support a particular (unnamed) child, considering pedagogical issues at individual, class or whole school level, exploring issues around staff wellbeing, or reflecting on your whole-school strategic approach to SEND. We will work collaboratively to discuss your specific situation and identify some practical ways forward.

Alicia and David are available for your free EP consultation and Amy can discuss working with us if you are interested in our service level agreements.

The free consultation is no obligation - you do not need to take any paid work with us. We just hope you find it useful and if you do want to talk about working together, contact Amy Robson our Director of Business to talk about how we work on info@appliedpsychologies.com
