After each session, he's more regulated and at peace, and he's always excited for the next one. The team is compassionate, skilled, and genuinely invested in the children they work with.

Just in case you are looking for a great ABA provider, this one is top notch!!…read more We have had several ABA providers over the past 9 years and with the exception of a handful of AMAZING behavioral therapists from the other facilities, Get Social! Is by far the best company we have worked with. The BCBAs, Social Leaders, program supervisors and therapists are exceptional! They have social groups, which is a plus! They actually follow through with what is being set up, discussed, needs to be done, etc. We feel heard during the parent meetings and valued. The therapists seem well versed and adjust the sessions to the kids needs each day. The BCBA is part of sessions, which we have never seen before unless highly needed or requested. The whole team seems to be educated for the needs of my kids, not a cookie cutter program.

Cindy McCullough is the owner and lead therapist for Get Social! Therapy. She is an experienced ABA…read moretherapist, board certified behavior analyst and has experience working in Roseville area school districts. She specializes in children with autistic spectrum disorders, but works with students with other issues as well. My son has been seeing Cindy for the past three months and his growth in that time has been tremendous. She is thorough, detailed and keeps data on everything to help you see your child's growth and to know when new goals are needed. My favorite part about working with Cindy is how she consults with me as a parent. She helps to teach me the ways to help my son so that I can implement it between sessions. Obviously, if I'm implementing things at home with my son it will stick better than if he only gets it once or twice a week. This is a major difference between her model and some other therapists. I highly recommend Cindy. She is knowledgeable, personable and dedicated to helping children grow to their potential.

I believe in IDEA and that when it is practiced as intended, it is very successful. I believe that the team mentality is crucial to success.

This organization provides social services and supplies necessary outreach to both educate and advocate in the defense of our youth. Being non-profit, they work on your pre-agreed upon donations.

Since their time here, I can see huge changes within our entire family. Thanks to SASSNA, my grandchildren will have a better life growing up with this disability than I did. Thank you, again! 01/25

Statement to anyone considering enrolling their child at Loomis Gateway Academy…read more As a mother of a severely dyslexic child I feel a responsibility to share with our community that the director at Loomis Gateway Academy is falsely stating she is certified in Wilson Reading System. I have verified with Wilson Reading System (WRS) that the senior director is not certified in any WRS program. As parents of dyslexic children I find It incredibly disheartening that anyone would attempt to mislead our parents. The director, Tesa Briles is trying to pass off WRS course work as being certified in Wilson. As a certified Wilson instructor (Wilson Dysleixa Practitioner) and a mother of a dyslexic child I feel it is my moral obligation to advocate for the children and support the parents. Her statements are misleading and factually untrue. Parents who are planing on attending Loomis Gateway Academy now or in the future, please know that there are no certified Wilson teachers at Loomis Gateway Academy. Tesa Briles, or any teacher at Loomis Gateway Academy does not hold a certification in the Wilson Reading Program. You can contact Wilson Reading System at 18008998454 to verify that Tesa Briles is not a certified in any WRS program. When I started on this journey with my son six years ago I wouldn't have known the questions to ask. It's my hope that I can help educate parents and advocate for our children. It's hard enough finding the right help for our children without being lied to from the people we are entrusting to help our children. Please feel free to contact me through messenger or directly at Juliestarbird@gmail.com. Julie Starbird Wilson Dyslexia Practitioner

As an intuitive learner for reading I was not able to teach my son myself. I am disappointed that I did not move my son earlier as he was simply unable to learn in a traditional classroom.

Both my sons have attended The Playhouse preschool. My oldest attended for 2 years and my youngest…read morehas been with Kyle for 5 months. Both boys have definitely thrived in the environment. I couldn't believe what my oldest learned. He was the first in his K class to count to 100 and he was able to add, subtract, and multiply by the time he was in K. Our youngest has really come a long way verbally since attending preschool. Most important is the community and friendships that they have made. My oldest son's two best friends are friends that he met 3-4 years ago from preschool. Some of the families have become like second families to us while we don't see others as often it's still so fun to see each other at sporting events or out and about. I won't say that the transition to public school was smooth for my oldest son because he just wanted to go back to preschool. But I really don't see that as a bad thing. When I had questions about education for my eldest Lynn gave me the most helpful assessment of my son's educational needs that I've ever received. So while it's only a year or two of my kids life it really feels like it has had a lasting positive ripple effect and I'm so glad my kids have this important opportunity to be little.

We were so fortunate to find Kyle and wish we had found him sooner. When we first contacted Kyle,…read morehe answered all of my questions, was very kind when we went to visit and included our older child in the visit, and was extremely accommodating. We had to move our youngest son to The Playhouse Preschool, earlier than we had expected and the entire process was great! Kyle helped my youngest with the transition to a new place. They worked on and through my son's emotions, talked to him and treated him like a person when he's only 2. Kyle and his assistants are talked about frequently in our home. They have helped and supported the potty training process, they celebrate the children's successes, and meet the children at their level. After starting, my 2 year old came home using full length sentences, singing songs, talking about friends, using manners consistently, and expressing himself so much more! The other kids are kind and love one another. The other parents are just as kind and welcoming to these young developing friendships. We are so grateful to have found Kyle and look forward to our son developing and growing even more over the next few years!

We've had such an amazing experience with my son ABA team here at Frontiers Behavior. We just hit…read morethe one-year mark, and I can honestly say it's been such a positive journey for our family. Marisol has been Kyrie's BT since the beginning, and she has truly been the best. You can tell she genuinely loves what she does, and she's been so wonderful with my son. The other BTs he's worked with have also been phenomenal, everyone there is so patient, kind, and caring. His case manager, Seth, has been great with communication and always keeps us informed. Sharon, the Senior Director, has been incredibly sweet and supportive since day one. I've seen some of the older negative reviews, but I honestly feel like those may have been from before Sharon took over. Our experience has been nothing but positive. Malia at the front desk is the sweetest, and every time we're there, I see how much the entire staff truly cares about the kids. It means so much as a parent. My son has gained so much since attending this ABA, and we are beyond grateful for the whole team. I can't thank everyone enough. Please give this place a chance..they've been phenomenal! Also, we've never had any issues with scheduling. If there's any changes, they inform us way ahead of time. If my son's BT might be sick or not able to come in, there's always someone that's been able to cover.

PARENTS BEWARE !!!!!!…read more If you are a working parent gainfully employed DO NOT BRING YOUR CHILD HERE. The scheduling and or lack thereof is too inconsistent unfortunately. Sessions are often cancelled unbeknownst to parents causing anguish to those of us who have jobs. You are often left to either call out from your job and or scramble for other means of care for your child. Too many unpredictable days here in this center. I have missed important meetings as a result of no-shows in this center, staff members not returning, sessions being cancelled, etc. A NIGHTMARE !!!! Someone is always cancelling and or calling out. They do not have a robust system in place at all. There are other ABA clinics in Placer county that "may" have a better system in place but again if you are a working parent and or a single working parent DO NOT BRING YOUR CHILD HERE. There's another clinic within close proximity in that same parking structure and I was told that other parents have also complained about Behavior Frontiers to the other clinic. PARENTS ARE CRYING as a result of Behavior Frontiers scheduling tactics that have left countless parents on edge. BE CAREFUL PARENTS !!!!
