When we began our search, I just sent out huge number of email queries asking if such-and-such a place offered educational therapy and asking for bios of the people they had. All the reputable places were forthright with us and gave straight yes/no answers, and the bios clearly stated education and primary ranges of experience (autism? EF? low achievement?). It helped a lot to narrow the field, and it helped a lot to send copies of the same text over and over instead of composing yet another new email or telephoning yet another new office.

DD loved her sessions with both people who would have worked out. She wanted to go back; they made her feel good. Don't return to a person your kid doesn't like.
