“By the time our adopted son was 5 years old, he had a diagnosis for sensory processing disorder, anxiety, and ADHD. We tried Occupational Therapy, supplements, dietary changes, and were looking into ADHD medication suggested by a neuropsychologist when a friend recommended MINDCAP to us. We were willing to try anything to help our son. The staff immediately made us feel seen, valued, and like we were a part of their family. We saw an increase in B’s attention and ability to focus after just a few sessions. After 10 months of sessions, he is doing well with his kindergarten work, making friends, understanding emotions, caring for others, and using reason and logic. He rarely has meltdowns and can recover from them much quicker now. Thank you MINDCAP for seeing the best in our B!”

“Dr. Zehr provided the energy of Feuerstein Cognitive Functions in living person during the basic 2 (CognitiveKey) training.”

“The training for Basic 2 (CognitiveKey—Level 2) was just as exciting and enlightening as Basic 1 (CognitiveKey). These go by so quickly and the information gained from Jeanne and the other students is invaluable.”
- L. Guy, Occupational Therapy Assistant
“My daughter came to MINDCAP after an experience similar to a brain injury, which stunted her thought processes and her sense of self-worth. When she began sessions, she was resistant and uncooperative, and being a stubborn teenager, she wasn't always nice. I cannot say enough about how amazing MINDCAP was for her! In addition to the Feuerstein Method, her instructors showed so much patience, persistence, professionalism, compassion, and encouragement in every session. Gradually, my daughter's resistance turned into resilience, and her intellectual and emotional maturity blossomed. It was incredible to watch her start from a place of poor communication skills and low self-esteem and then grow to welcome challenges and celebrate victories, renewing a sense of "I can." She is doing so much better today, and she actually wants to go back!”
