    We have been very grateful to hire Rafael to mentor my son who is on the spectrum and has other psychiatric diagnoses. Rafael is extremely professional, well versed in his field and has not only been helpful in terms of working to progress maturity and social appropriateness for my son but he has also been a support system for me as a single parent trying to navigate this journey. I highly recommend Rafael as he is highly responsible and reliable. He is also very flexible to work with you on scheduling and any adjustments that are needed. He is current on knowledge around medications, diagnoses, treatment plans and appropriate goal setting. He is also extremely patient.
