FROM OUR CLIENTS

 Thank you for putting so much work into my report, Flannery. The information is enlightening and I look forward to educating myself further. I have enjoyed thinking about things from a new perspective and have found your input very helpful.  I appreciate your expertise and dedication. .- J.G.

Claudia completed a neuropsych evaluation for our son. She did a very thorough and thoughtful job, taking time to cover all the bases in order to make an accurate diagnosis that weighed a lot of interacting factors and life context. I really appreciated the way she made a diagnosis while acknowledging that not all the evidence is in -- that time can change things and that there are possibilities for change and re-evaluation after our son has more time to learn. I also appreciated her realism about the way that IEP's work in schools and the fact that she focused on ways that our son's needs would be best met by the system with certain language in place, while acknowledging that that same language might need to change with future re-evaluation. The final report and diagnoses were incredibly helpful and confirming, and she gave us good advice about specific help our son would need - resources we could investigate in our role as parents and referrals for local therapists. I highly recommend her evaluation process for anyone with kids who have suspected learning disabilities, and anyone with foster or adopted kids who have a history of trauma, neglect, or abuse. - V.A.

Our daughter got in to her #1 first choice college! No way this would have happened without your help, championing, as well as accommodations she received both in school and with ACTs. She got high honors at her competitive high school — no small feat, and got in top percentiles on the tests.

Our work with you stands out as one of the best decisions and investments we made in 18 years of raising these kids. You can quote me on that.

Big Thanks Flannery! -S.S.

Flannery, I really want to thank you so much for your thorough, thoughtful and careful report for my daughter.  While I recognized that she was pretty anxious, I obviously underestimated how much it was getting in her way.  I am really grateful to you for making this so much more clear. I think she finally feels heard... she also thinks you are very cool.  :) She is having her best semester ever and I feel confident that you were a big part of the solution. We are so grateful to you and your input, suggestions, and recommendations. - K.C.

You have helped more families and people than you will ever know, Claudia. You have made such a huge impact on the quality of school services for my kids and helped me to get what they needed.

You are so approachable and have such a nice way of educating school people about kids and their unique challenges. You are also so amazing at finding a way to open the eyes, minds and hearts of the school people through your testing and experience, to have real proven insight into why a child struggles and why kids do what they do.

You are also able to validate through your thoughtful testing, and experience exactly what a kid needs to grow and learn academically as well as socially. All of your recommendations for services and accommodations are unique and specific to each child. You truly are an asset to your field and a true advocate for children with special needs and their families.

All of the school people have left the meetings where you present your reports with a better understanding of my kids. They have all told me what a great job you did and how the way you present your reports is so much more meaningful than the way many experts in their fields present their reports. Thank you!!! - C.L.

The diagnosis and learning about ADHD has really changed my life, and allowed me to revisit my history in a much more constructive and forgiving way. I hope you know how important the work you do is. - K.N.
