Reviews
"Jane is such an amazing and wonderful therapist for my son. Jane really cares and understands what he is going through. After years of trying many different therapists, my son had not liked any of them, and he had refused to keep going. But that all changed when I found out about The Therapy Pod in a newsletter, mentioning that they could do therapy from home, through a Minecraft World. When I asked my son, he was actually a little keen to try it, which was surprising, but seeing he loves Minecraft and builds in it for hours, I thought we would give it a try. We have not looked back. Jane has helped him with his confidence and self esteem and usually because of his high anxiety, he does not like to go out to many places, but somehow Jane got his confidence up to come and try a face to face with her at her amazing farm. My son loved it so much and just interacting with all the different animals and Jane and the beautiful nature surrounding him out there was so good for him and he said he had not had that much fun for years and he can't wait to go back. My son is 16 and we are so very lucky to have found Jane. She has such an understanding, kind and beautiful soul. Thank you so much for saving my son and helping him to live a better and more happy life. I can never thank you enough."
