''My 17 years old son has been in the virtual neuro-sensory-motor program with Gabriela since September 2023. During this time, he managed to get his first job on the golf course and training to become a carpenter. The improvements relate to his increased confidence, much better conversational skills and better articulation. He got more toned, fit and enjoys daily physical exercises with consistently better scores. He has been working on the interactive metronome at home for a few months now. We noticed consistent improvements with neurotiming what shows as decreasing MS scores in his IM home program performance reports''

" Our 7 year old son improved his articulation and emotional regulation. Morning meltdowns have gone away and he is happy to go to school. The changes started from week 1 of our home-based program with Gabriela''

'' My son has been doing the virtual brain-integration program with Gabby for dyslexia. In the first few weeks we noticed significant improvements with handwriting - he started writing more neatly. His swimming improved and eagerness to participate in the swimming competition. He improved articulation and speech. Progress has been consistent since the first week
of our home program."

'Gabriela is a very knowledgeable, cheerful, encouraging SEN Teacher. She teaches from years of personal experience teaching and training her own child. That connection is invaluable and highly valued as a fellow parent. She is very adaptable to the needs of the parents. I highly value her coaching and would recommend anyone who has a child with Autism to undertake coaching with her. During current times when we have to stay at home with our kids, this training is even more important. And the ease of online coaching makes it so easy and accessible to anyone across the globe''

''The online coaching has been very helpful and we’ve learned a lot! I highly recommend Gabriela, she is a fantastic coach - really knowledgeable and professional, but mostly, the insights she provides is personal, focusing on your child’s profile and needs. It is also well emphasized the opportunity to learn and support our children on a daily basis. At the end of the sessions, I was feeling inspired and motivated, more in control of my life. I also enjoyed the fact that it was on-line, as it suits our busy routine. I would recommend this to anyone as it is very informative and just a great reminder of good parenting.''

'' We have only had three sessions of Sensory Integration and already our son is more engaged and talking more. We travel from Galway every weekend but so far it's definitely worth it to us. Our 6yr old has received plenty of 'assessments' over the years but very little actually OT sessions. And no services at all over the last 2 years.''

''Gabriela is an amazing professional! She is very experienced and supportive! Between the benefits of the practice, she well emphasises the opportunity to learn and support our children on a daily basis. She provided us with techniques to assist and support our child in many different ways, and how to implement them at home, to extend the learning process beyond hours of therapy. The coaching program has been very helpful and we’ve learned a lot! I highly recommend!''
