Testimonials

Our family is so grateful for the care our son received at DFX. The ability to have his Occupational Therapist, Speech Therapist, and Educational Psychiatrist meet together to strategize, collaborate, and pool their knowledge is so valuable for his care. We find so many positive ideas are generated for his treatment when his team is able to be in the same room and discuss how we can help him as a whole person, not just in fragments.

~ L.B., parent of a child receiving multidisciplinary care at DFX

DFX understands that there are many different levels of learning how to function in an autistic body. They teach the kids and their parents how to thrive in a world that is challenging for them. I truly believe that the early intervention at DFX has changed my child's trajectory.

~ M.J., parent of a DFX client

The team at DFX definitely helped to change the direction of our daughter’s development. They have gone above and beyond to educate my wife and me on what to do, recommending books, and joining conference calls with our daughter’s school to talk about her progress. Our therapist has come to our house to facilitate play between our daughter and son, and even joined our daughter on the playground at school several times to help her work on social skills.
