Hear from parents we have helped to navigate challenges with supporting a child
with social, gender, learning, attention or processing differences.
“Carmen was amazing in helping us with our son who has special needs, including ASD, ADHD, Opposition, and high IQ. She has a wealth of experience and knowledge about kid differences, and has a uniquely kind and gentle approach. She’s empathetic, supportive, and considers the whole child before offering potential solutions, keeping in mind that it’s not a one-size-fits-all approach. She was the first person to realize that my son had social pragmatic issues (which was right on!) and offered great books and other support. I can’t recommend Carmen enough! ”
“It has been invaluable to work with Lauren for the last year. In the midst of some difficult family situations, I was trying to move forward on professional and personal goals. Lauren was a lifesaver in helping me focus on the present and make space to recharge emotionally while still keeping my goals alive. I was able to eliminate the unnecessary noise of the mundane to focus on finding solutions. Now I am in a better space and able to move forward with clear priorities and the ability to embrace the ever changing parenting challenges I face.”
“Lauren did a fantastic job. She was open, supportive, and her kind-hearted nature shone through. ”
“Carmen is one of the most compassionate people I’ve had the pleasure to meet. She has a wealth of information about children’s behavior, especially ADHD, 2e and gender expansiveness. She understands everything about children with ADHD: from resources, to specialists, to physicians, to medications, and this list goes on and on. She has deep understanding of neuro-diversity & gender diversity challenges and experience in helping children find the right path to better care. I would not hesitate to recommend her to any parent that is looking for help for their children. She is a wonderful person and extremely knowledgable individual. Thank you Carmen for all your help. ”
“It’s hard to be a parent. Sometimes perceived delays are actually just normal developmental stages. But how does one figure this out? How and where do you find more information? Carmen has a plethora of knowledge about schools, as well as educational programs and specialists. She has been an invaluable resource for my family and friends. She can assess a family’s needs, and then direct the family to the right resources. She gives sage advice from vast and varied personal experiences.
”
“Lauren had wonderful insights on friendship!”
“By asking thought provoking questions, Lauren facilitated ideas and together we worked towards creative solutions that I didn’t see on my own. Her easy going nature made me feel very comfortable during our sessions. I can confidently say that Lauren was instrumental in my personal search for answers.”
