Parents of two teenagers in crisis, Houston TX:
"Dr. Devine and Dr. Sarahan created and implemented supportive and practical therapeutic programs that helped our daughter identify and focus on her individual strengths, and taught her how to use her unique strengths to participate in an accepting and contributing community. Additionally, they supported our family as we worked to transition our daughter to a different life setting that would assist her in transitioning to adulthood.
More recently, Dr. Devine and Dr. Sarahan have assisted our family as we have explored novel approaches in helping another daughter complete her high school education. These novel approaches have included opportunities to not only fulfill state educational requirements, but to do so by implementing internships and skill-building practices that help our daughter identify her individual strengths and teaching her how those strengths might make a contribution to the community, thus helping her transition to healthy adulthood.
Both Dr. Devine and Dr. Sarahan are warm and caring individuals who have become 'integral' supports for the growth of our family. We strongly and confidently recommend them, and the methods they employ to educate and support individual and community growth."

Parents of a neurologically different child, Houston TX:
“[Our child] has high-functioning autism, severe anxiety, and bipolar disorder. This combination of challenges leads to widely fluctuating behaviors… Dr. Neal Sarahan and Dr. Tara Devine have been willing and able to deal with all of these issues.
When the going gets tough and it inevitably does, Drs. Sarahan and Devine will NOT throw up their hands and turn your child back over to you and say they can't deal with him/her. They will remind themselves and you that life is hard and that you can’t go around your problems, you must go through them. I can’t think of a better set of leaders, guides, or partners with which to make this journey.”
