    "Thanks so much Kerin for helping my 7 year old son,with getting a better attitude towards brushing his teeth each morning , and for being creative in helping him become more sensitive and aware of when he gets hungry which in the past he ignored, which then led to tantrums. I can't believe his attitude changes in such a short time..."

You also provided me with the ability to be a good advocate for her in high school, after years of unsuccessful attempts, for which I am very grateful. Thank you for being an excellent resource as well, finally helping us to find wonderful therapists. You really go the extra mile."

    Testimonials from Adult Clients:

    Thank you so much for all of your wonderful coaching. You really do a great job, and I know it's not an easy job to do. You have to have enormous patience, skill, empathy and intuition.

    I often include you in my mental list of things I'm grateful for. You have greatly enhanced my quality of life not only in terms of my mental health, but in making me a better husband, father and boss.

    I am amazed by the work you do and what a contribution you make to this world, one person at a time!

    Kerin Bellak-Adams coached me through a difficult licensing process that included extensive written and oral examination.  She taught me to reduce anxiety by teaching relaxation techniques, then helped me to break down study areas into manageable chunks. She also helped me to prepare for the oral examination by having me practice answering questions in the expected knowledge areas which with her help, I finally passed! I highly recommend Kerin Bellak-Adams.

    "Working with Kerin has been life changing. Kerin adds the vital piece of structure that was missing in my struggle with ADD. The medicine helps, but without Kerin, I would not be able to function at the level I am in my family and work environments. I am extremely grateful I was referred to Kerin and would highly recommend her to anyone struggling with ADD."
