My colleague Sharon Bond, who has died aged 77, was a social worker and family psychotherapist in London before setting up her own therapy, consultation and training service, Chiron.

Starting out in 1985 as an education social worker for the London borough of Tower Hamlets, she was then for many years a principal psychiatric social worker with Hackney Child and Family Consultation Service, working with families and children in mental health clinics and with teachers in schools.
