My family has been utilizing Presence Developmental Services for our 12 year old son for the past 3 months. His therapist Mandy goes above and beyond and has been nothing short of amazing. Mandy has been able to establish a relationship with my son and shape his behaviors in ways that others have never been able to do. She has also been a positive influence on not only my son but our entire family. I cannot say enough great things about Presence Developmental Services- they have been a true blessing for our family.”

“April Garcia, at Presence has been a steady and grounding presence in Drew’s life over the past year. Her calm demeanor and compassionate approach help him feel safe, understood, and comfortable opening up about his emotions and challenges.

April has an exceptional ability to connect with developmentally disabled young adults, meeting Drew where he is without judgment and helping him build confidence and independence. Through deep breathing, cognitive behavioral techniques, and grounding strategies, she has given Drew practical tools to manage his anxiety and navigate stressful moments.

Her consistency, patience, and genuine care have made a meaningful difference in Drew’s emotional well-being and continued growth.”
