"I've continued to get wonderful feedback from parents who attended Monday night. I think some parents put a lot of pressure and high expectations on their kids and sometimes miss the empathy communication piece. You did a great job. Your supportive strategies and analogies are positively changing childrens' lives and childhood experiences with their parents. As the lecture circuit goes (and I"ve been to many,many) yours is one of the best."
~ Betsy Dolan (school guidance counselor)
"I just want you to know that I truly appreciate the services that you are offering to children and families. You do a great job!"
~Pam DeGregorio (Director of Special Education, Harvard MA)

(Tyngsborough SEPAC Co-Chair)
