What Families Are Saying

"There is literally nobody better. Dana's skills, compassion, and commitment are unprecedented and unmatched! She has been a vessel of hope for our daughter! There aren't enough words in the dictionary to accurately explain her worth in this field and the joy she has brought into our world!"

"I was diagnosed with Tourette Syndrome and FND at 15 years old. I met Dana while desperately searching for a CBIT therapist. Her kindness and expertise greatly helped me understand, manage, and accept my condition and symptoms. I am now 19 and am absolutely thriving, tics and all. I would not be where I am and who I am without her help."

"I can not say enough wonderful things about Dana Wachter. From the beginning Dana has shown such incredible kindness, patience and understanding. She has an amazing ability to connect with a child in a way that makes them feel comfortable, understood and never defined by their tics. What I am most grateful for is the way Dana has helped my child truly understand his tics and feel more confident in managing them. She has given him practical CBIT techniques and "superpowers" that he can use when his tics are bothering him, while always approaching everything with compassion and without ever making him feel like there is something wrong with him. As a parent, watching your kids struggle with something they don't fully understand can be incredibly difficult. Having Dana in our corner has made such a difference. She has not only given my child the tools to help with his tics, but has helped him better understand himself and feel empowered rather than embarrassed or frustrated. Dana is exceptionally knowledgeable, but it is her genuine kindness, warmth, and ability to meet a child exactly where they are that makes her so special. I am incredibly grateful for everything she has done for my child and our family. I would wholeheartedly recommend Dana to any family looking for support with tics and CBIT. She has truly been a gift to us."

"I was referred to Dana by a neighborhood friend whose daughter was doing bunny nose tics. She told me that in a few short sessions, Dana has worked miracles. At this time, my young son, 3rd grade, was also experiencing anxiety tics like many kids do today. We were so lucky to find Dana and to be even luckier to live in an area where she could visit in our home. She is lovely to work with, and really produced results. From the tricks and exercises that she is able to teach, the warm stories of other kids with tics that have grown up to live normal lives, and the friendly open way she speaks to children, she was a blessing for us. Dana was able to very quickly help my son, and then she said to call her whenever we need her, which we did over the years, when he would revert back-through talking with her, he would be fine again. If your child is suffering, I highly recommend that you call her ASAP."
