“We have been so impressed by Stephanie’s skill and commitment to helping our son (age 10) improve his social and executive function skills. We started with home sessions that were fun, engaging and provided creative opportunities for the family to support him on his skill building journey. After a few months COVID-19 arrived - Stephanie thoughtfully and promptly converted to an interactive online model to ensure our son could continue to make progress. Additionally, seeing how the pandemic limited social interactions beyond the household, she organized video sessions with a peer so that our son could build new connections. She always comes to sessions well prepared and organized, but with sufficient flexibility to adapt to our son’s needs on any given day. We are so grateful for Stephanie’s kind, skillful and steady support and give her our highest recommendation.”
“Our kids (ages 8, 6, and 3, with the older two on the spectrum) ask us every day if it’s a “Stephanie Day” because they look forward to her visits so much! At first, we were hesitant to try Zoom, thinking it would never compare to the magic of her face to face visits. To our surprise, Zoom has been great - with the added bonus of training our kids on “Zoom social etiquette,” which is almost certainly going to be a necessity for this young generation. Stephanie’s creativity, ability to connect, and clarity of expression is an amazing gift not only for our kids, but for our education as parents too. We have seen tremendous growth with each passing week and we can tell that her concepts are firmly taking root. With regard to cost, one possibility is to submit these services for reimbursement under FSA and that can be a significant help. Overall, Stephanie has taken us on an amazing journey, and this has been a priceless experience witnessing the growth of our children!”
