  • Damaris naturally holds qualities of compassion, kindness, and love, which are difficult qualities to train someone in. In a world where we are constantly distracted by busyness and things around us, I believe Damaris brings about a practice of groundedness for people to connect to themselves and the world around them in a really pure and simple way, a way that works best for them.

  • There really are no words to explain just how much Damaris did for us and just how capable they are in all things medical and health-related. They are also a highly ethical person as I was able to observe on many occasions, and they are extremely reliable. I have no hesitation at all in recommending Damaris as a caregiver for anyone facing disability or illness. You will find they are a hardworking, kind, brilliant, and knowledgeable person who takes their responsibilities very seriously and cares deeply for their patients.

  • They listened intently and warmly to all the physical and emotional energy I was experiencing before coming in, and offered a few options for massage that I could choose from. I chose the myofascial release - the gentle one that feels like cradling and rocking - and I can’t believe the impact… My heart and body are more open. I am lighter. It’s like Damaris created the space in my body and my spirit for me to be held and to process a lot of emotional weight I have been carrying.

  • Damaris has the ability to see children for who they are – not just as a sum of their behaviors. They are successful in reaching them because they meet them where they are. They have an innate ability to determine what activity, game, conversation, or experience will help them express an emotion or strengthen an interactional skill. We find that Damaris often just listens to our son for a few minutes and lets his mood and needs guide the direction of their session.

  • Damaris  proved to be extremely hard working,  observant, intelligent and trustworthy and with amazing knowledge of anatomy and disease. In addition we were able to enjoy conversations together and laugh and joke,  which greatly enhanced my life in the wheelchair. It is hard for me to imagine returning to good health without Damaris and I am extremely grateful to them for their dedication and reliability.
