“Brie showed patience, creativity and kindness, making Thomas love and trust her immediately. She would consider his needs and design activities to assist him. Her ideas were always very creative and Thomas, whose attention span also needed assistance, was always eager to try these new games. I am very grateful for the work Brie has done with Thomas. He is thriving and much of the credit goes to her skill and talent. I highly recommend Brie as an early interventionist and know that we have been very lucky to have had her help”.

 Emily and Blake
"Brie showed me the way to massage and communicate with my baby, Blake, when she was 2 months old. She's now nearly one and I’ve massaged her every week. She enjoys this time immensely and truly relaxes to my touch. I’ve gained so much from sharing this time with her and value every opportunity to connect."
