What our clients have to say
CAC Changed our Son's Life!! Our son was diagnosed at age 2 and was fortunate enough to be able to start ABA therapy at the age of four. He received therapy for 3 years over 40 hours a week until he started kindergarten. No review can do justice to the amount that he learned and that he grew mentally and emotionally in his time at CAC. The staff and Director are not only still our friends but we considered them part of our family. I cannot recommend CAC enough for a child with autism.
My son has utilized Chrysalis’s services for over 3 years now. In the beginning he quickly transitioned up to the 40 hours in center. We could immediately see improvements and were given information and tactics to continue at home. When the pandemic hit, they did everything they could to help us continue his therapy at home with their support to the best of their ability. I won’t say that part was easy on either party but both they and us did our best in the challenging new world. Once my son was of age for school (pre-K), they worked with us and the school (teachers and staff) to be prepared for what was to come and how to navigate the school year. He even had his therapist full time at the school to begin with which a relief on a worried parent’s heart. My son no longer has a therapist in the school due to his progression but we’ve still retained Chrysalis’s services for teacher and parent education. The supervisor meets with the teacher and helps provide guidance to deal with any behaviors that might need attention and provide details to us on what we can do at home still to help our son. I say all this so others can know how supportive they are and willing to continue support even when the child doesn’t qualify for ABA services anymore. I highly recommend them. They do everything in their power to ensure the kids get the support and therapy they need, even in these trying times.
She has been blessed , challenged , encouraged & is always a star student at the Chrysalis Autism Center!! We thank God daily for this facility! We are so thankful to share the journey with her!
Our son received therapy at Chrysalis for almost 6 years. My family will forever be grateful for the strides made with their guidance. He is on the very severe end of the spectrum with lots of challenging behaviors. In spite of this, he was still able to be potty trained with their full assistance both at our home & in the clinic. It was life changing for us! They also helped establish a wonderful foundation for utilization of a communication device that is now being expanded at his current school. During Covid shutdowns they tried their very best to help us in our most critical times. These are just a few examples that give a small glimpse. The therapists loved him & it was obvious that this was more than just a job. Chrysalis was a stepping stone that led him to where he is now. They were instrumental in his placement to a school that could meet his growing needs as he got older. The impact on our family will be felt indefinitely.
Chrysalis Autism Center has been a great experience for our son and for us and has made such an impact on our lives. The staff is very professional and we can tell they really care about [our child] and our family. [Our child] came to Chrysalis at age 5 with his expressive and receptive language scoring at a 4 year old level – after being there for one year, his language jumped 2 years! We knew right then and there we had made the right choice for [our child] – my driving 500 miles a week is all worth it. Chrysalis works diligently at developing [our child's] ABA program to match his individual skill level focusing on areas where he is lacking while improving the skills that are already in place. Going so far as to implement varying teaching procedures to ensure which way will benefit [our child] the most. CAC set up a toilet training plan which all involved with worked very hard, including [our child], with a successful positive outcome. We thank them! We've come a long way but still have a ways to go and look forward to continuing the journey with Chrysalis Autism Center – giving [our child] wings to fly. -
Chrysalis is a wonderful center that we are truly privileged to have both of our twin boys attend. The staff are magnificent people, who are some of the most empathetic, loving and caring professionals who were fully invested in the development of our children. We would thoroughly recommend any parent looking to undertake ABA therapy consider this center as the results will be life-changing.
Meet our son, a very intelligent and vibrant little boy. He has a smile that can melt anyones heart. He's determined and very energetic. He was diagnosed with autism at the age of two. It was a devastating blow to our family just to hear the words that our son had this terrible disease that we knew little about. We did a lot of research and read the pamphlets that were given to us, but no article or excerpt could prepare us for what was about to come. Shortly after that, his behavior began to spiral out of control. He experienced severe mood swings, and his behavior was unbearable. He began attendance at Chrysalis Autism Center at the age of four. Before going to CAC, he had a very small vocabulary of words, used no sign language, and he was still having major behavior problems. With the intense therapy, hard work, and dedication from the staff at CAC, and from us at home, he has made monumental improvements in many areas. His speech and communication skills are getting better. He has some verbal usage and sign language.His behavior issues have ceased, and he is a much more controllable child. He is just a delightful little boy. We are so grateful to Chrysalis for all of their dedication. When programs and teaching didn't seem to work for him, they were diligent and made the necessary changes to accommodate his learning style. We, his parents, can't thank the staff at CAC enough for helping our boy to be the best that we knew he could be.
... This is the program you only read about in books, every child with autism needs this chance to grow and progress to the best of his or her own ability and Chrysalis Autism center is the place to help. We know when our son is dropped off there he is not wasting his time, and we know that they take good care of all their children like they were their own. The therapists are trained and closely monitored. Every child with autism is different and Chrysalis gives each child an individual program based on his or her own needs. If they run into something they are teaching and the child is not getting it, they find a new way to teach it and they keep working with the child until they learn it..
