The psychoeducation sessions at Lycali were incredibly helpful for our family. After our child’s autism diagnosis, we felt overwhelmed and unsure what it all meant for daily life. The sessions explained everything clearly and helped us understand our child’s strengths as well as their differences. We left feeling more confident.
