My son has always struggled with reading and writing,  in spite of the best efforts of teachers and his IEP program at school.  We finally decided to get extra help and connected with Christin.   She was very helpful in answering all of our  questions and was great to work with. My son also seemed to enjoy working with Christin as she seemed to connect with him in ways that helped him have fun while learning. I would highly recommend her services!

I needed someone to proofread my Statement Of Purpose for graduate school admission. Since I hadn't…read morewritten an essay in probably 10 years, I'd asked few friends to provide feedback before I reached out to Christin. Despite our best efforts Christin was still able to identify a few grammatical errors, instances of passive voice, as well as confusing tenses in the same paragraph. In addition to her technical acumen, Christin is a really sweet person. She was patient and read through multiple revisions. Her criticisms were so gentle that I didn't even mind them and I'm usually a sensitive person. I was really impressed with how subtle her suggestions were, yet they made a huge difference in how readable my statement was. I'm really glad for her help and would recommend her to anyone who wants to improve their writing.

The mindfulness strategies provided by his tutor Cynthia (Northern Colorado) have been absolutely critical in changing his narrative about himself as a person and a student. Our son was in play therapy for two years. He has had 12 sessions with Cynthia, and has made more tangible progress in those 12 sessions than he ever did in play therapy.

Both boys are on the ASD spectrum, and have been working on focus, anxiety, academics, and fine motor skills. There has been tangible improvement in all areas- both boys use mindfulness strategies at home, school, and in social situations. The mindfulness curriculum resonates and stays with them, and simple phrases and strategies help them cope with challenging situations.

Ms. Riedell is highly educated but not qualified to deal with children with ASD as her website…read moreadvertises. She is knowledgable but not adaptable. Upon dealing with a child who struggled, she became distraught and very judgmental. She berated us at length on our parenting, which was highly unprofessional - and then refused to refund prepaid fees. She seeks legal counsel on every move. Do not pre-pay; if you aren't happy with her services, you can kiss good-bye to your money. It was a nightmare of an experience, and our mental health team members were very dismayed at her behavior. I understand if she couldn't handle a depressive child, but criticizing the parents harshly and keeping many hundreds of dollars is not professional.
