What Families Say

Catherine Wimpey's evaluative work and educational therapy, both in terms of her methodology and positive approach, were deeply effective when we needed support the most. Not only did she provide executive function and reading therapy for our son, but we also found her report and in-person sessions so helpful that we asked her to assess our non-dyslexic daughter too. These experiences have served all of us well!

Kids do well when they can.

When they can’t, something’s getting in the way.

Let’s take these next steps together.
