Madeline is so gentle and kind. She is a wonderful and a very knowledgeable OT with boundless energy. She is a perfect fit for my gentle giant of a son with ASD and ID. She comes to our session each with a plan and fun new things to try. EXCELLENT!!!!
Angel Hanner
Madeline with Building Blocks Therapy is amazing! She is so good with kids, my daughter absolutely loves her, and she is great at what she does! Madeline does a great job at explaining things to our family and listening to us. Our 3 year old daughter has made strides this year with managing emotions and eating new foods and we couldn't have done it without this therapy!
