Saying that this place is wonderful wouldn’t be enough to describe how I feel about Behavioral innovations. My daughter has only been going for 5 months, and she’s a different child. Meltdowns have almost disappeared; her speech and confidence have developed. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for your great work and dedication. For us, there’s a before and after BI. Thank you!
