I am so grateful to have found Ana to work with and help my family!!! The last 4 years have been hell dealing with my daughter's Leukemia and now relapse, a very rocky marriage but more recently, my husband's stroke which has left him physically and cognitively disabled and my poor 8 year old son who can only stand by and watch everything fall apart around him.
After only a few sessions, my (VERY active) son warmed up to Ana and looks forward to their visits! He's usually sweating bullets by the end of their session because she found that playing catch with him really gets him to relax and open up...which he needs soooo much!!!
Ana also takes the time to discuss her concerns and/or thoughts with me along with coming up with ideas to help my son grow, heal and succeed. Thanks to Ana, I signed him up for soccer which was the BEST idea ever!! He felt so proud of himself and looked forward to each meeting so much!! Ana even asked to come watch his last Soccer game!!
The last few sessions has included the 3 of us so Ana could get a better feel of our family dynamic. We played, laughed and talked together and I found myself enjoying the session just as much as the kids. The last time we left her office, my daughter said, "When do we get to come back?!"
With so many things in my life that are completely out of my hands, I feel like I'm finally able to be proactive in helping my children heal....and by that, I mean by finding and having Ana work with us to move forward in the happiest and healthiest way possible!! read more
