Frequently asked questions

What does our first session look like?

The first session is typically for information gathering and to get acquainted! I prefer a parent/guardian be present for this session!

Do you give homework or practice between sessions?

Sometimes yes! Usually its nothing complicated but sometimes work outside of the session is necessary!

How often will you communicate with me as a parent?

I often leave that up to the parent or guardians preference! If you want to get on at the beginning or end of a session and we can chat, great! Or I can send weekly or monthly updates as needed!

Casey was very patient in my son’s first session with her as he eased up. By the end, she had already won several smiles from him and I could tell what she was saying was resonating with him. Looking forward to more sessions and hopeful for improvements

I think Casey is doing a great of connecting with Rylee. I'm happy that Rylee is willing to open up to her about topics she feels uncomfortable talking about with other people. Im hoping Rylee keeps opening up more.

Casey is doing an amazing job of trying to get Rylee to open up. I'm also happy that she's definitely picking up on Rylee's habits and being super observant.
