Here’s what parents have shared about their experience
with Progressive Behavior Support
“Corey started working with my son when he was 2.5 years old, and I am so grateful to her for showing me very early on what child-led, joyful, and intentional therapy can and should look like. Corey always considered the whole-child in her approach, and she was extremely thoughtful in every aspect of my son's therapy. Every session was grounded in natural, child-led play using my son's favorite toys and songs. He loved "playing" with Corey, and his therapy always felt so warm and nurturing. As a parent, Corey set the bar extremely high for all providers!”
