J.R.'s journey: navigating the world of big feelings, jumbled letters and a Ferrari body

​

Miss Vivian has been with our family for more than five years and we know her well. She has been a transformative force in our family. When she first began working with our son, he was multiple years behind in reading and writing due to his learning and behavioral challenges. This made it difficult for him to attend school and we had frequent tantrums and periods of school refusal. She has helped him in an amazing way, by tuning into his particular personality and needs. She built a plan that not only addressed his learning delays but also his issues with self regulation. Now, a few years later, he is reading at grade level, happily attending school daily, and able to have warm and rewarding friendships at school and with his brother. 

​

Not only did she support our son, she also supported us as parents to navigate the behavioral and academic challenges. More recently, she started supporting our older son in developing some executive function skills to approach his major exams. We will be forever grateful.
