Amy is the best! When I was feeling deflated by the endless parenting advice that didn’t seem to apply to my kid, Amy was able to step in and help me see what was important: loving and appreciated the kid I had, and doing whatever I could to nurture and preserve that relationship. She helped me step back from the endless power struggles, to better understand what made him tick, and to let go just a bit of what other people thought. Amy is a rockstar!A Mother form North Hampton, MA

Dr. Ballin was a valuable resource to teachers and administrators in building sustainable routines of classroom management, differentiation, and cooperative learning in our classrooms. Due to her calm and reassuring manner and her effective classroom strategies; teachers quickly trusted Dr. Ballin and could take risks, allowing them to grow in best practices.Kristen Nemekal, Elementary Network Chair/Instructional Coach, Pioneer Charter School of Science
