Judith is the consumate professional who is a joy to work with. She was recommended by our pediatrician and we couldn't be more pleased with her work with our son. He was premature so had some strength and coordination issues. Judith worked with him for almost a year and her regular PT sessions with him are the reason he is running around loving life today! She has a wonderful approach with babies, she's warm, encouraging and very focused. She quickly figured out what we needed to accomplish with our son in each session and gave us super helpful coaching on what to do with him

We love Judith. She was originally recommended to us by our Pediatrician. She has been working with my 4 yr. old daughter since she was 2 and we see lots of progress. Judith is incredibly knowledgeable in her field and makes each session fun for my daughter so she doesn't even realize she's getting a workout. My daughter looks forward to seeing Judith each week and often waits at the front door for her. Judith is very professional, great communication and follow up. Highly recommend!!

My daughter was prescribed physical therapy at her 2 month check-up for Torticollis. We began weekly appointments with Judith shortly after that. I am so thankful that we were referred to her. There are so many stresses in the first few months after a baby is born, even without a diagnosis that requires PT, and Judith helped tremendously. She is so exact and observant and was able to identify right away where the problems were with my daughter's development. The treatment plan showed results instantly. And if I ever had any questions, she was readily available via text. Judith completely put my

Judith helps children overcome challenges they face in a manner that is gentle and kind but also firm! She Is highly knowledgeable on stages of growth in children and can help develop with fine and gross motor skills. I watched her sessions with my nanny child and would love to see the baby's smile when he achieved a task. She helped him to get to the point where he was able to safely crawl down steps by doing exercises and helping build foundational muscle. She brings all kinds of fun toys and games so that the child feels he/she is playing while learning.

When my son Hendrix was diagnosed with Torticollis when he was 3 months old, I was so worried about what would follow and when I got linked up with Judith, all our fears immediately went away. For the next year we did weekly (at first) and then monthly visits with Judith and she made the stretches and the physical therapy fun and informative for all of us. Plus Hendrix loved her! Im so grateful for all the development information she shared with me and she would suggest the most simple stretch or guide me to keep my eye on something so slight in Hendrix and the difference in his movement and
