  • “Lindy Joffe, OT, worked with my daughter for several years. To say that she transformed our lives would be an understatement. From the moment you walk through the door, you know you have found a place where your child will be seen for who they are and for the potential that lies within them. I can honestly say that Ms. Lindy worked magic for our family.”

    — Callie L. (parent)

  • “She truly cares about the kids she works with and we've found her to be an incredible advocate and support for our family as we navigate a complex set of issues.”

    — L.M. (parent)

  • “Today, our son is a successful high school student, athlete and friend who is comfortable advocating for himself, and Lindy was a critical trusted adult and advisor on this journey.”

     — Tay F. (parent)

  • “...we had the profound experience of watching our now, 11 year old son overcome significant sensory, physical, and emotional challenges, emerging on the other side as a sweet, curious, articulate person with the resilience and work ethic of someone far more mature in age.”

    — Jennifer P.

  • Thank you for teaching me how to put my brain to the test, and teaching me how to use it in helpful ways. I'll miss you.
