Parent Testimonials
"Dr. Anderson and her staff made a dramatic difference in the progress of my children. Having multiple children with a diagnosis of autism hasn't been easy. Dr. Anderson and her staff helped us deal with everything from severe behavior to attendance at IEPs. Every staff member at ACT is compassionate, well-trained, and respectful. The staff is extremely dedicated and knowledgeable. My children are successful full-inclusion students which I couldn't have envisioned without Dr. Anderson. ACT has been a tremendous help to my family."

“Dr. Aimee Anderson, Dr. Karen Barbi, and their staff - from Julie in the office to the specific therapists who worked with our daughter - are the best of the best: dedicated, well trained, and caring. They brought the best of both worlds to our family - the most current and up-to-date treatment methods delivered at home, school and camp - given with the utmost care and affection.”

“Our experience with Dr. Karen Barbi has been incredible. We have seen such an amazing change in our son since we started using the strategies suggested by Dr. Barbi. Her dedication and commitment to our family have been very much appreciated. We can’t believe how much has changed in such a short amount of time. She has been extremely helpful
to us.”

“Dr. Anderson and her team of therapists provided highly professional services to our non-verbal autistic son for four years. Their personalized and committed intervention greatly improved the quality of our son’s life. We felt fortunate to have services from Dr. Anderson and her staff whose relentless efforts taught our son communication and self-help skills which otherwise seemed to us impossible to teach.”

"ACT has been a blessing to my son and our entire family for that matter. They have a great team of therapists that were willing to move mountains to achieve our set goals. My son was non-verbal with very limited adaptive skills when we first started with ACT, but because of their support, we are very proud to say that he is now able to speak some words, communicate his needs and do most of his daily living skills by himself."

“Working with ACT has been the most productive part of our autism journey. Dr. Anderson’s knowledge, skill and compassion have supported not only our son, but also our family. As various issues have come up, Dr. Anderson has always made us feel like we were her priority.”

“Dr. Karen Barbi worked with my daughter for more than 4 years, and from the moment their relationship began my daughter bonded with her in a very meaningful way. I think that my daughter’s instincts led her to understand that Dr. Barbi really cares about the kids that she works with, and while Dr. Barbi continued to challenge my daughter to work through her disabilities, she did it with care. This made all the difference.”

“I am really impressed with the methodical documentation provided by ACT’s therapists. Other therapists that we engaged prior to ACT were talented, however, they did not take the time to document the challenges and successes of each session. Too, I am impressed with the positive energy that ACT’s therapists brought to each session. These professionals have a tough job but it was always nice to see them enjoy the challenges they face.”
