I cannot emphasise enough what a huge difference VA Psych's founder Anna Bunch and her VA Ashleigh have made to the running of my group of therapists and thereby to my hectic life. Anna helped me set up all my systems and went above and beyond to help me make them run more smoothly. My ongoing VA support is excellent and invaluable. This is the first summer holiday away with the kids since setting up in private practice that I've actually been able to switch off from work. My family are as pleased with VA Psych as I am. What makes the biggest difference is that nothing is too much trouble, every request or question is met with a calm, friendly, supportive can-do attitude.Posted on Google![]()
