"Krista was part of a team of professionals working to help our son who was diagnosed with Autism. Krista quickly became more than just a professional who helped our son achieve his goals - she became someone who cared about our family (including the dogs!) and whom we relied on for advice and sometimes just an ear to listen. Her ideas and insight were invaluable to us; we learned a lot through Krista's expertise and had a lot fun along the way too! She treated our son with so much kindness and patience and helped him achieve goals so much more quickly than we were anticipating. She treated us, as parents, with respect and showed a much appreciated sense of empathy and understanding. We talk often of Krista around our dinner table and while she isn't part of our everyday anymore, she is a huge part of the journey we went on to get to where we are and for that we will always hold a special place for Krista in our memories and in our hearts. We feel blessed that Krista came into our lives and know that she will be a blessing to anyone else who chooses to have her as part of theirs." Renae & TJ
“Krista was an incredible help with my son during his preschool years. As someone who struggled with speech and general other motor developments, Krista was very good at paying attention to him and his special set of needs, and tailor-made activities that he responded to with ease and delight. As a result, his progress was quite amazing: he thrived in kindergarten, and is now ready for grade 1, in no small part due to Krista.” Michaelle
"Krista has been working with our son for the past year and it has been a wonderful experience. We have found that she has a wealth of knowledge, that she easily translates into actual "real world" practice. In addition, she has collaborated well with our sons aid and other therapists. She definitely went beyond our expectations, and helped us in many ways. We would definitely recommend her to others." Nicole and Lionel
"Krista has been an essential figure to our 4 yr old son's developments. We've worked with her for 2 years and have seen great successes for our son. She has many ideas that are age appropriate and that keep our son engaged in the exercises and activities. Krista has great patience and she finds a good balance between challenging his development goals and his limits and capabilities all to the best of his interest. Thank you Krista for all of your wonderful help and influence." Sharon
"Krista worked with our son for the last two years. We found Krista to be both a professional and knowledgeable therapist. She was patient, understanding, enthusiastic and compassionate. Our son was comfortable with her right away and a positive relationship was developed between them quickly. What we enjoyed most, however, was the personal touch that Krista gives to her work. She invested time and energy researching strategies for our son's success. She exhibited a personal care for our son and his best interest. She joined us in our excitement as we watched our son develop and succeed. On a couple of occasions, Krista "went to bat" for our son, advocating for his needs. We came to really love her; our whole family enjoyed every visit! We highly recommend Krista to you and your family!" Cheryl
"We are so grateful for Krista and the work she has done with our son this past year and the exciting progress he has made in sensory-motor regulation and in play skills. She has explained his sensory challenges clearly, helping us to gain insight into our sons behaviour and how to best assist him. She has answered our many questions and given us very practical and useable tools that we can incorporate into our family's daily routines. She has helped us access excellent resources to aid in his development. We look forward to future progress and are very happy that she is on our son's team." Christina
