My Son was a client of Building Blocks for 3 1/2 years. I don't know if I have the words to describe the profound impact that this company has had on my families life, but I'll try.
From the owner, office staff, BCBA's, supervisors, and of course from our therapist's, our son was shown nothing but love, understanding and compassion. My husband and I were instructed and taught everything that we requested, and were willing to soak up, to help us in our role in his therapy. We had shorter term therapist who made HUGE impacts (Saul, Loli). Longer term therapist who will be in our hearts, minds, and family for all of time (Jessica. Tina.). As well as transition and substitute therapist who dove into helping our son. We waded into all things behavior (including aggressive and self injurious), establishing a sleep routine (so we weren't up all night anymore), teaching non-verbal communication (which leap frogged us into verbal communication), eating more foods, toilet training, stranger danger, the list goes on and on. The only reason we are not with them anymore is because we transitioned to a different form of therapy (which is a personal viewpoint of changing things up from time to time) to which they were nothing but supportive. They brought us so far that our current company feels that all we really need now is a social skills program. I can't quantify how different that outlook is from 4 years ago.
So for all the huge things that improved our sons (really our whole household) quality of life, but as well as all the immeasurable other things that put us on a path of hope and joy, Building Blocks will always have my gratitude and affection.
