TESTIMONIALS

Lisa and Justin Fillmore

Our son always had texture sensitivity and food aversion, which stemmed from reflux issues at birth and a highly sensitive personality. After several attempts with other OTs and paediatric dieticians, we were at a loss for how to get our son to eat a variety of foods and sufficient calories.  Elise was referred to us by someone whose child was being tube-fed. We were told that Elise helped them transition to solids. We started calling our sessions "food fun" and Elise encouraged our son...

Henriette Nel

Our son stopped eating any food apart from his trusted five items at the age of three. For more than two years, mealtimes were an issue and we nearly gave up. Many professionals tried different techniques to help us to overcome his fear of food. All without significant success. We finally heard about Elise that started the journey with us. In her soft yet firm way, she won ground and turned around our son’s mentality about food. We now enjoy mealtimes, we all eat the same food and he has...

Elise helped both our 3 year old with sensory issues and us, her parents, understand her difficulties! Through weekly sessions and feedback – our daughter’s eating, social anxiety and ability to cope with sensory input improved drastically and for that, we are ever grateful! Elise is wonderful, warm, calm and connected instantly with our little one! Her sessions were the highlight of her week! We can’t recommend Elise and OT enough!

Marlisa Smit

“Elise is an excellent occupational therapist with loads of experience and a real understanding of my son’s needs. In the last 3 years he has been with her, he has gone from a child with severe sensory issues and who wouldn’t touch anything, to one who actively plays with all types of textures and toys. She genuinely cares for her clients and is very passionate about her job. I would highly recommend her.”

Celia Mahne

“We took our 18 month old son to Elise for an evaluation regarding sensory sensitivity. He was vomiting frequently, up to several times per day. He only ate bland soft foods, spitting out anything with texture.  Within 3 consultations with Elise he stopped vomiting altogether. He was chewing dry fruit loops with ease. Thank you Elise for your enthusiasm and dedication. You were the answer to our crisis.”

Jules Streak

“From the first time I spoke to Elise, she made me feel calm and also excited at this ‘new journey’. She and my son bonded immediately and he has gone from strength to strength with her. It really feels like she ‘unlocked’ something in him that has been incredible to witness. Thank you Elise.”
