We had our first session last night. Diana was....amazing! She was kind and understanding and really engaging with my kiddo. She didnt judge or ask him to stop moving. She incorporated that movement into the session and saw it as an advantage vs a distraction. We cannot wait to continue seeing her and my kiddo is very excited for his next meeting.
