Thank you so much for such a thoughtful, thorough, and validating report! I am just so grateful for everything that you have done for my child. For the first time, I felt like I was actually reading about my child in a professional report. I’m hopeful that they will be able to get the support they need given how superbly articulated your recommendations are.
