“Logan not only met our original goals but has met goals we thought were impossible. Thanks to Lucy and The Therapy Group programs my son’s abilities have greatly improved. I am impressed with the outcome so far and am looking forward to new possibilities”.

Jessica

 “Jessica has struggled with schoolwork since third grade.  This is about the time that children are required to work on their own. During 3rd, 4th, & 5th grades the teachers allowed students to do makeup work, so even though progress reports showed poor performance, she still received As & Bs on her report cards. Once she began 6th grade there was no more make up work and her grades fell to low Cs & Fs. The Summers after 6th & 7th grade she had to attend summer school. By this time Jessica had developed really low self esteem, she was having problems with depression and anger management.

When Lucy Barlow evaluated Jessica she was very confident that she had programs that would help her. Jessica’s self confidence, personality and self esteem have all improved 10 fold since working with Lucy. She has made the A-B honor roll and is preparing to take her SATs.  She is  talking about going to college.

Jessica often remarks how much easier school work is since she worked with Lucy. The Therapy Group has given Jessica a future she didn’t think was available to her”.

Jacob

Jacob was a whiz at math and can quote you basketball and nascar stats all day, but he couldn’t remember what he had for lunch. Numbers and concrete rules weren’t a problem it was the conceptual stuff  like word problems, main idea and story subjects that he just didn’t get. Our home life was consumed by school work. We came home from school and did homework until dinner, ate and then back to homework until bedtime. Our weekends were filled with practice tests and extra worksheets. It felt like our whole family was failing. No matter how hard Jacob worked or how hard we worked with him, nothing seemed to help.

When we met Ms. Barlow she immediately understood how we felt. Instead of simply teaching Jacob “tricks” to learn, or suggesting we have him tested for ADD as the teacher had, she was able to determine that Jacob’s brain wasn’t processing correctly. The programs Lucy recommended made a world of difference. It was like a light bulb went on. Jacob made the A-B honor roll and understands the directions his teachers give now.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Nicholas

My son went from being labeled the “smart kid” in preschool to “the kid that sits in lala land” kindergarten through 4th grade. I knew my son did not have ADD, but we had to listen to this year after year from his teachers, even though two doctors and a psychologist said he didn’t.  The fact that I refused to drug my son to make the teachers happy just made them mad so they refused any help he needed in class. All the tests for learning disabilities were coming back “within normal limits.” So why wasn’t my child learning?

Our blessing came when we got a flyer in the mail and it asked several questions that fit my son to a tee. Thanks to The Therapy Group and the programs they recommended my son finally got the help he needed. My son is able to focus better in school and has gone from D’s and F’s to having a B average in 6 months time. Each report card is better.
