TESTIMONIALS
“I am an attorney representing children with special needs. Often times I am faced with the need to have my clients assessed by an independent assessor. Occupational Therapy is a common area of need that my clients require remediation via therapy. I have found that Dr. Smith Roley is the best expert in this area. She had competently assessed and provided recommendations for my clients and has even testified for me as an expert witness at hearing. She takes the time to do the proper assessments to get a true understanding of my client’s deficits and explains how and why therapy is required a necessary in order for the student to gain an educational benefit. The clients that I refer to her have nothing but wonderful things to say about her and tell me often that they were not even aware of how important occupational therapy was for their child and how much progress their child has made in all areas of education due to honing in on sensory regulation through therapy. In this field, I have seen many independent assessments and I have yet to find an Occupational Therapist who comes close to the expertise, professionalism and experience that Dr. Smith Roley has had. She has been a huge asset to my firm and for my clients. I would highly recommend her to anyone!”
