Diagnosis Doesn’t Get the Final Word

Everyone can improve their cognition, regardless of the cause of a cognitive challenge. We work with clients of all ages to make advances in cognitive, emotional, and social skills to improve function, obtain goals, and impact quality of life. We believe that it is never too late for hope, and that a diagnosis does not define a person.

Testimonials

“Jeanne’s training was by far the most interactive that I have taken. She did such a fabulous job of supplying us with resources that are valuable to the type of clients that we each work with. Jeanne is such a dynamic instructor. I had a fantastic week.”

- L. Russell, Psychology student

“Since starting MINDCAP, my child has begun to learn the deficit areas that no other therapy has been able to address. He has more expanded language skills, better retention and understanding as well as clearer verbal communication. We have experienced positive changes in how he lives his life. Frustration levels are dropping. He laughs freely and can enjoy his life. His personality, which was driven by anxiety and stress, is much more relaxed and carefree. We are very excited to see him come alive and be able to willingly participate in life. We know that we have a long way to go, but to see that we are on the right path for our child is priceless. It gives us hope for a brighter future for him.”

- J.M., mother of adult son with Autism

“The learning environment that MINDCAP provides brings tears to my eyes, as I know my daughter felt completely at ease. I am so very thankful for this opportunity for her. Thank you for giving us hope and just a fresh start to this next semester.”

- A Grateful Mom

“How do I put into words how profoundly The MINDCAP Center has changed our daughter’s life (and ours also). Gone is the girl I describe as a zombie. No emotion, or at least very little unless it was extreme positive or negative emotion. After the first summer she took part in MINDCAP classes (M’s junior year), teachers started to notice small differences. The changes were more evident to her family and close friends. During the summer before her senior year, M again took classes with MINDCAP in a group setting. This helped her to reinforce what she had done the year prior, but also, she was able to build on those skills. M is still 100% medication free almost 18 months after her initial MINDCAP experience. As she is finishing up her high school career, she is going to Purdue Fort Wayne to major in Elementary Education with her concentration in Special Education. She wants to help kids like herself.”

- A.H., mother of teenage daughter
