We were referred to Yvette as our then nine-year old daughter was
having behavioral challenges at school -- she found it difficult to sit still, stay within her space, and focus on her work. It seemed that she was uncomfortable in her own body. As a result, our daughter felt anxious and frustrated when it came to learning new things, such as reading. During the assessment, Yvette guided our daughter through numerous tests to determine the root causes of her difficulties. Yvette's patience and attention to detail as well as her ability to relate to and connect with our child made it possible for our daughter to be at ease and follow Yvette's instructions. Yvette determined that some of our daughter's reflexes had not integrated, so she created a plan which contained a series of exercises to be done at home. Exercises consisted of a series of repetitive movements taking approximately a half hour 4-5 days a week. A flow was created, as one movement lead to the next. We were surprised at the initial thought process required to do the movements, but the positive outcome was well worth the effort. In addition, Yvette provided further resources and referrals, all of which proved to be very helpful. Over the course of six months, Yvette visited to observe our child's progress and to implement additional exercises to support her development. The transformation we witnessed during this time was truly astounding. Our daughter went from shying away from reading and challenging school work to discovering her love of reading and the ability to sit and focus, to fully engage with the task at hand. Reflecting back, we realize it would have been advantageous to have had this assessment done when our daughter was an infant or toddler. We would recommend an assessment by Yvette to anyone with young children. Yvette's attention to detail, knowledge and wisdom reflect her passion for and commitment to helping children reach their full potential. We will always be grateful for Yvette's support.
