Testimonials

  • “We were referred by his pediatrician while he was going through months of evaluations for Autism. He was diagnosed early with severe symptoms and taking him to therapy was very hard on both of us. His therapist Alexi has worked so hard with him and we got to the point that he would cry to go to her! I can’t say enough about how personable, caring, and friendly she is with not just Z, but with our entire family. We trust her, and she is always there when we have any questions and concerns.”

  • "He wasn't even 2 yet when he started in January 2020, and in 3 months, we can't believe how far he has come. We started off with him having the hardest time going twice a week, and I never thought it would get easier, but his therapist, Alexi has been nothing short of amazing, patient, and so extremely friendly. She found a way with our son that I never thought anyone could. In no time, he was crying to go to Alexi. He has had made such big strides in a short time, and we know his sessions have a lot to do with it. We feel like Alexi is part of our family, and we couldn't be more appreciative and grateful for the success we see in our son's journey.

  • "We brought our 6 year old when he was still having trouble with wetting the bed nightly. He is now graduated and no accidents, a much happier kid and has learned so many skills for other things he was struggling with. He just graduated and he was sad because he loved his therapist, Alexi, so much and loved the facility and all of the fun things they got to do. "
