The short version

  • We don’t have a clinic in Birmingham. Ours is in Mill Hill, London, and most families from Birmingham and the West Midlands work with us online.
  • If you’d like to come in, it’s around an hour and a half by direct train to London Euston, so a Clarity Day works as a day trip.
  • You don’t need a diagnosis, and we’ll tell you on the free call whether online or in person suits your child.

How it works from Birmingham.

Most families do one of these three things. You don’t have to pick now.

Online from home

The Remote Programme and the Full Picture Plan both run over video. You get a plan for your child, a home programme, and check ins with Adi and Dana. No travel at all.

Coming to Mill Hill

By train, Birmingham New Street to London Euston takes around an hour and a half on a direct Avanti West Coast service. A Clarity Day fits into one trip, or you can come for an Intensive week. Ask us on the call for the easiest way from Euston to Mill Hill.

A bit of both

Some families start online and visit later. Others come to Mill Hill first, then carry on from home with video check ins while we adjust the plan as your child progresses.

Where Birmingham families usually start.

Some children do really well entirely online, with you running the home programme. Others need us to see them hands on first. We can’t tell which until we know your child, so that’s what the free call is for.

Want a whole week? The Intensive is five days, with a three day mini intensive also available, in clinic in Mill Hill, with three months of support afterwards from home.

We’ve been where you are. Now we know what to look for.

It started with our own son. He didn’t say a word until he was five. Today he’s fully verbal, has finished his GCSEs, has friends and is independent.

We’ve spent over 20 years in developmental therapies since, and we’ve both been Melillo Method certified since 2022. We work with Birmingham families the way we’d have wanted someone to work with us.

“Adi and Dana explained things in a way that finally made sense. We understood why, not just what to do.”

“After an intensive week with Dana and Adi, we saw improvement in our son’s behaviour. He is calmer now, his focus has improved and his sleep has improved.”

Questions Birmingham parents ask us.

Do you have a clinic in Birmingham?
No. Our clinic is in Mill Hill, London, and Birmingham families usually work with us online through the Remote Programme or a Full Picture Plan. Some also travel down to see us in person.
Is online support as good as coming in?
The online programmes follow the same Melillo Method structure as our work in clinic. We look at your child, build a plan, and you run it at home with our coaching. Some children benefit from being seen hands on, and we’ll tell you on the free call if we think that’s true for yours. We can’t promise particular outcomes either way.
How long does it take to get from Birmingham to Mill Hill?
By train, Birmingham New Street to London Euston takes around an hour and a half on a direct Avanti West Coast service. Ask us on the call for the easiest way to reach Mill Hill from Euston.
What does it cost from Birmingham?
The Intensive is £3,000. That covers a full look at your child before we start, the week in clinic, a home plan and three months of support afterwards. From Birmingham you’d add train fares and somewhere to stay. If you’d rather start smaller, a Clarity Day or a remote look at your child are lighter first steps.
Can we start online and visit later?
Yes, and plenty of families do exactly that. You start from home, and if we think seeing your child in person would add something, we’ll suggest a visit to Mill Hill and help you plan it.
Do we need a diagnosis, and what ages do you see?
No diagnosis needed. Many families come to us while they’re still waiting for an assessment. We work with children from 18 months to 18 years, and the Intensive is usually from around age 3.

Not sure whether to start online or come down?

Tell us what you’re seeing and what you’ve tried. We’ll tell you honestly whether online or a trip to London makes more sense, and if we’re not the right fit, we’ll say so. No waiting list, no diagnosis needed.
