"Bravo! We finally have a must-read volume that takes the mystery out of, ‘What does an educational therapist do?’ This literary ‘master class’ of best practices addresses our decision-making minds in determining how to apply variable interventions, when to break from the academic craft to therapeutic listening, and how to interact with the client. The frosting on the cake is her comparison of educational therapy and the art of cooking!"
—Dorothy Ungerleider, Founding President of the Association of Educational Therapists (AET) and author of Educational Therapy in Action
