STEPHANIE (SMITH) BRADSHAW

Something we really value is Stephanie’s focus on communication that has a purpose. She encourages our child to communicate during real interactions rather than only practicing isolated skills.

We have found Stephanie very easy to work with as parents. She is open to our observations and considers what we are seeing at home when deciding how to approach therapy.

Stephanie has been especially helpful when our child becomes frustrated. Instead of immediately solving the problem for them, she gives them tools and opportunities to communicate what they need

We like that Stephanie does not make every session feel predictable. She pays attention to how our child is doing that day and changes the activities when something is not holding their attention

Stephanie has helped us become better listeners as parents. She showed us how giving our child a little extra time can make it easier for them to organize their thoughts and express themselves.

We were surprised by how quickly Stephanie found activities that our child connected with. She uses familiar interests to encourage communication, and our child seems much more willing to participate because of it.

The therapist has been incredibly supportive throughout the process. She celebrates progress while patiently working on areas that need more practice.
