Coaching Testimonial
Cheri was very helpful in explaining new evaluations to utilize as a school-based therapist and how to utilize organizational strategies in the classroom for a student with underlying dysgraphia. I really appreciate the time she took to provide me with new resources. I can't wait to dive into her book!! ~J. P.
