What families say about Manatee

  • “Therapy made a big difference for us. I realized I need to be the one in charge, so my daughter feels safe again. Over the past year, my daughter has been pulling away, spending lots of time alone in her room, but since we started with Manatee, she’s way more social and enjoys her time with our family a lot more. Manatee in 3 words? Simple, effective, easy.”
    —Manatee mom

  • “It’s so sweet - I am seeing my old daughter back. She seems much more carefree, like she used to be. She is able to joke around, laugh at herself more and she stopped shaming herself so much. My advice to other parents? Just do it, every minute you wait is a mistake.”
    —Manatee dad

  • “Manatee therapists have a great talent to speak with kids, they have the patience that as parents we often don't have. I would absolutely recommend it because it’s so practical (you can do it at home) and because kids need a space to be able to vent their feelings. Thank you Manatee for helping us stay on our feet!”
    —Manatee mom

  • “Manatee has been a lifesaver in our household, especially when my kids are anxious... I love that I can see when they complete an activity, so I focus on the positive.”
    —Manatee mom

  • “I am way more patient now. You know as a dad… I tend to lecture, and then listen… now I've learned to listen to her first before making conclusions. I’ve also noticed that we are both more comfortable talking about our feelings overall. And, we had a great connection to our therapist, it was clear she had a lot of experience.”
    —Manatee dad

  • “She's not really anxious anymore. She has learned what to do when she is worried and has stopped picking her hair. She is also learning to stand up for herself and make better friends :)”
    —Manatee mom

  • “The entire process was really simple and I appreciate the ease of it all. But most importantly, my kid ACTUALLY looks forward to every session! We love our therapist, the tool box and the family app that keeps us in the loop.”
    —Manatee mom
