Testimonials

"As parents of two young adoptive children we were floundering after two years trying to learn how to help them. Our daughter in particular, did not accept us as her parents. Behavior issues were robbing our family of joy and we felt helpless. Wendy then came in and demonstrated an amazing ability to read kids emotional struggles. She led us through an expansive set of targeted steps, individualized for both children and helped us measure ongoing progress with widely known behavior assessment tests. If you are lost in the wilderness dealing with emotionally distraught children, Wendy is your guide to safety."

"Wendy has worked with our family for a little over 2 years. When she first came on board our family was in crises, our son was creating an extremely chaotic environment and the stress on our family was at a breaking point. Even though we’d seen many behaviorists, OT’s and other therapists, Wendy is the first person I talked to who got what was going on. She has been able to zero in on the root cause and begin to peel the layers back and start the healing process. It’s a long and hard process but the results are truly unbelievable. "

"I wanted to share with you some great comments the teachers had today after Wendy’s consultation. Kim and Gretchen put into practice the suggestions Wendy made on Friday and saw positive results. They created a second row in front of the teacher at story and J. sat glued to the book in front of him! For the first time, he was completely attentive and focused! They used lots of positive reinforcement which he responded to. He had a very successful lunch at a small table. We really saw how effective Wendy's suggestions are! Please let her know."
