“I appreciate all of your support and the space you provide me. You are great at what you do and an extremely kind soul! I’ll cart your message and wisdom with me for years to come.”

“Doing an evaluation before therapy is like having a syllabus at the beginning of class. It gave me direction and the language to help the therapy process. It also helped me see what is possible, which gave me hope for my future.”

“Of all the people we’ve worked with, you have taken the most time to really understand and this is so thorough and helpful.  Thank you.  You’ve given us hope.”

“You changed my life for the better.  I know I will remember and think of you fondly often for the rest of my life, with gratitude, knowing you took the time to really see me.”

“You are a Godsend.  (She) mentions you every once in a while in a positive thought.”

“Thank you for being so kind, professional and buttoned up. You also have this kind warmth about you. I was really worried he would not finish the testing, but he felt very comfortable with you. “

“This is amazing, there are so many resources.  It closes a door and opens up others.”

“Such a positive and validating experience.  She really liked you and said you made her feel comfortable and that you were genuine.”

“This was definitely a good idea.  You are amazing.  This was a great experience.  Often people on the spectrum feel drained after testing, but I didn’t because you made this very comfortable and put me at ease.”

“Thank you – I thoroughly enjoyed getting your expertise & your personal down-to-earth-ness! You made my experience so light and enjoyable.”

“I feel validated.  This is so informative and spot on, but worded in a different way than what I would have thought of myself, which is super helpful.”

“This is so amazingly helpful.  I will be reading this again several times; there is so much in here I find valuable.  Thank you so much!”

“Thank you for your thorough assessment.  It was information we have needed for a long time, and the first time we received feedback that was right on target and seemed to explain our son perfectly.”

” I feel relieved.  Things are a lot less scary when you have a name for it.  I’m glad to have direction rather than just trying different medications and questioning whether I am being treated for the right diagnosis.”

“It’s been more helpful than I can describe.”

“I could tell all along it was your goal to find answers and give direction, so I felt relieved already.”

“This is a beautiful document.  I’m amazed at the amount of work you did and how many helpful resources there are and how well-organized it is.”

“Thank you.  This explains a lot.”

“I am so glad I did this.  This validates my experiences and now I’m more aware of some things I need to work on.”

“I think you’re excellent.”

“I am glad I did this; it’s a learning experience that provides opportunities for me to grow.”

“I am glad to see my strengths.  And the results are consistent with feedback that others have given me, but more in depth.”

“This experience has restored my faith in the mental health community.”

“It was very validating.  I felt like we now have more of the whole picture.  It was all worth it.  The diagnosis is helping me reframe a lot of things that used to be shameful.  I am looking forward to trying new things and utilizing all the resources you gave me.”

“I feel an immense sense of relief.  This has been wonderful.  Thank you for the detailed report.”

“Thank you so much.  The report was really really well-written and affirming.  I really appreciate it.”

“WOW!! This is wonderful! I have a feeling that we will be referring to your report, and to other resources suggested in your report, for years to come.”

I have been testing and reading others’ reports for the past 50 years and want to congratulate you on a very well-written and helpful one. I found your paragraphs to be very pithy, well-written, accessible, and useable.  Thanks for doing a good job.”

“You were recommended to us as ‘one of the most kind, caring,  patient, and loving people.”

“The report is extremely helpful, and very insightful. The recommendations are excellent.”

“She clearly feels safe with you and that speaks volumes.”

“Your work is impeccable.”

“Dr. Emily has a wonderful reputation in Columbia and offers good, comprehensive evaluations.”

“Dr. Emily and Dr. Julie do wonderful work.  We refer all our psych testing clients to them.  They do incredible work.”

“I have been sending clients to Dr. Emily for years, and her assessments are worth the cost. I’ve not come across another psychologist that checks all boxes (comprehensive, thorough, so insightful as to the potential contributing factors of a client’s diagnosis, abundant resources, clear and specific treatment recommendations, etc.) like Dr. Emily does.  She does this work with love and integrity! So grateful she is in Columbia.”

“I think Columbia Psychology Healing Center does some of the best evaluations in town. They are really thorough, so I always recommend them to my clients.”

“When I practiced in Columbia, I utilized Dr. Emily Crawford-Thompson to get high quality assessments completed for my clients who needed them. I’m so glad to hear her practice has two doctoral level psychologists doing them at Columbia Psychology Healing Center LLC now. A good assessment, while having costs associated in the short run, can save individuals significant costs and frustrations of potentially years of inappropriate treatments.”

“Dr. Emily Crawford-Thompson is a fantastic person who does superior comprehensive evaluations for both ADHD and Autism. I highly recommend her and her colleagues.”
