Last summer my fiancé and I were really struggling with my 8 year old son sleeping habits. My…read morefiancé had moved in with us back in March and my son was finding this hard to accept that he wouldn't be able to sleep with me anymore (he sometimes/often slept in my bed). I was recommended Mariko through a friend and she has been nothing but unbelievably helpful. We started with an at length phone conversation discussing my entire situation. Mariko was full of ideas and suggestions. I put these ideas into place immediately and they worked! The follow up of emails and text messages from Mariko were priceless and so comforting, it was great knowing someone was in my corner rooting me on. I couldn't recommend her more!

We are so very grateful for Mariko and all that she did for our family. My son had a sleep…read moreregression at around 2 and a half and we hit a breaking point because this was also around the same time we had a second baby. Not only did we feel validated and heard by Mariko, she saved us in terms of helping our son sleep through the night again. Mariko was so knowledgeable and helpful. She checked in with us for weeks and answered all our questions with care. Thank you Mariko.

Thank you for all of your work over the years. Parker has come so far under your care. Not only…read morehas his behavior greatly improved, but he learned to tie his shoes with Sarah, learned to ride a bicycle with Sarah and Kody, expanded his use of cursive writing with Olu and has improved in many other ways under your supervision. Parker is now a model camper after Kody and Olu spent time with him at camp after we were made aware of ongoing problems. In addition, Parker improved significantly at school because of the efforts of Kody, Diego and Shirin, who met with his teachers and other professionals on two occasions.

We've been going to Cortica off and on throughout this year. I know it's always challenging to get…read morethe needed services and parents are run through a gamut of tests, assessments, doctor visits, insurance pushback (!), comorbidities, etc... I'm glad a place like this exists - a one stop shop for many of the needed therapies + high quality of care. As well, because they serve a specific demographic, I feel that they are better equipped to handle the idiosyncratic behaviors typical of certain diagnoses. They have been flexible with my child's schedule and my child runs in the door when we arrive. I just wish they had another location closer to us.

I contacted Cortica to learn more about speech therapy services for my son and to understand their…read morepricing and insurance coverage. I was told I would receive estimates and that someone would contact me to discuss them. A few days later, I received a call that I believed was related to those estimates. Instead, I was told the caller was a nurse and wanted to conduct a medical intake. I immediately explained that I had not been informed this would be a clinical appointment and that I first wanted to understand costs, insurance coverage, and whether Cortica was the right provider for our family before proceeding with any medical evaluation. I ended the conversation after expressing those concerns and was told someone would follow up with additional information. To my surprise, I later discovered that a charge had been submitted to my insurance and that I was assigned a patient responsibility amount. As a parent seeking services for a child, transparency is extremely important. Families should be clearly informed when a call is considered a billable medical service and whether it may result in insurance claims or out-of-pocket costs. My recommendation to other parents is to ask for written confirmation regarding which calls are informational and which may be billed to insurance before discussing medical history. I hope Cortica reviews its communication process to ensure families fully understand what they are consenting to before any charges are generated.

After the sudden passing of the supervisor the therapist were left to dry... no direction no true guidance no one truly helping them help my child. Scheduling was awful other therapist would call off often ... For at least five months there was no supervision. No progress my son regressed horribly. When a new supervisor finally came out even she was personally aware at how bad they dropped the ball with my son. She apologize several times and promised she would help make changes....
