"After just a one hour parent consult with Karen, I have a better understanding of my daughter's strengths and needs and feel more empowered to support her on her learning journey with the strategies and resources Karen provided. Karen has a wealth of knowledge that she pairs with a kind and compassionate demeanour. This combination is a life saver for a parent trying to navigate these uncharted waters. Thank you Karen!
