Deborah Thomason and her team are well known for the guidance and support offered to families before, during, and after placement. We communicate regularly and often with families throughout the process and always visit the child during the residential placement. We take pride in our personal touch that includes getting to know our families in a way that helps us understand their needs and hopes. With this insight, we can effectively guide them through the decision making process during these very challenging times. We assist with crisis management and offer immediate assistance with assessment, intervention, transport, parent coaching and treatment recommendations. If your family is in need of an educational consultant, feel free to contact us.
