Our approach
Care that never feels like a conveyor belt
We started Eiko because expert care should feel personal and joined-up. Instead of bouncing between disconnected services, you get one team who plan together and actually talk to each other.
Every plan is shaped around the person in front of us — never a template — and we keep families and other professionals in the loop every step of the way.
- One coordinated team, not five separate ones
- You're seen as a whole person
- Clinic, home, school or online
- Genuine kindness, from the first hello
Who we help
Helping the right people, in the right way
Every person who comes to Eiko is different — and so is the support they need. We take the time to understand the whole picture, then bring the right specialists together to help. Here’s who we work with most.
Our services
Three disciplines, one connected team
Care that fits together. Whether you need one specialist or several, we coordinate everything so you only ever have one team to talk to.
Why choose Eiko
Care you can genuinely trust
The difference is in how we work — thoughtful, joined-up and always centred on the person in front of us.
Multidisciplinary team
Occupational therapists, speech therapists and specialists who plan together, so nothing falls between the gaps.
Evidence-based approach
Every recommendation is grounded in current research and measured against clear, agreed goals.
Personalised care
No two people are the same. We shape each plan around the person in front of us — never a template.
Compassionate support
Warm, unhurried and genuinely kind. You'll feel listened to from the very first conversation.
Flexible appointments
Clinic, home, school or online — at times that fit around real life, not the other way around.
Collaborative working
We keep families, schools and other professionals in the loop, so everyone is pulling in one direction.
Success stories
From the first phone call we felt understood. The team explained everything clearly and our son now walks into school with a smile. We can't thank them enough.

Questions & answers
Everything you might be wondering
Can't find what you're looking for? We're always happy to talk it through — just get in touch.
No — you can contact us directly. Many of our clients come to us themselves, while others are referred by a GP, school, solicitor or another professional. Whichever route you take, we'll guide you from your very first message.
Wherever works best for you. We offer appointments at our clinic, in your own home, at your child's school or nursery, and online via secure video. We'll always agree the setting together.
Fees depend on the service and the type of assessment or support you need. We're always transparent about costs before we begin — just get in touch and we'll talk you through the options clearly, with no obligation.
We aim to respond to every enquiry within one working day and to offer an initial appointment as soon as possible. If your situation is time-sensitive, let us know and we'll do our very best to prioritise it.
Yes. Alongside our clinical work we provide independent assessments, expert witness reports and consultancy for schools, case managers, solicitors and healthcare teams. Our reports are clear, impartial and delivered on time.
Every therapist at Eiko is HCPC-registered, a member of their professional body and enhanced-DBS checked. You're always in experienced, accountable hands.
