Our Impact
“Andrew is really pulling it together this year!!!! I can’t thank you enough for helping him. I knew he had it in him just didn’t know how to get it out. I think a real change is that he feels proud of his work even if he doesn’t like it.”
Lana Hawkins
“We entered Sunfield Center fresh off a string of painful behavioral incidents in nearly every imaginable setting. Via our weekly PCIT sessions and daily homework, we forged bonds with our child and between ourselves as caregivers. We began to notice that we enjoyed time with our child and could again venture out in public.
Our child is now so proud to be a good listener. She is happier with herself and the world around her. We have gained great confidence in ourselves as parents.”
