She has been very, very, very nice to talk to and my daughter really looks forward to meeting with her to talk as well. Though I don't know, of course, what is being talked about, probably due to confidentiality and all that. Like I said, my daughter always looks forward to be able to meet with Dr. Swain.
This provider has been very good for my daughter. My daughter has reached out to want to have more counseling sessions because she feels like she's being heard and she's able to work through her problems that she's been having. So she's been having a very positive experience.
Dr Swain is so nice. She is wonderful with our daughter. She has been so helpful for our daughter but also has given me tips. Thank you!!
Dr. Swain is very good in communicating with our daughter. Though, developmentally delayed, Dr Swain does speak to her as an adult meeting her on her level. We look forward to working with Dr Swain
