Dr. Rimler has changed my life by improving the life of my child. My son is 14 and has been suffering through motor and vocal tic attacks for over a year. He was reaching the end of his rope, and I had already dropped that rope months ago. Honestly, I had lost all sense of hope and I lost sleep, my job suffered, and I felt sick all the time just from worrying about his future.
When I found Dr. Rimler online, I was skeptical and guarded because I didn’t want to be disappointed. After speaking with her on the phone for just 20 minutes, the constant heaviness I was feeling was lifted as I allowed myself to hope again. She is so positive and optimistic, and she amazingly educated herself to help her own son manage his tics.
My son attended therapy with Dr. Rimler over this past summer, and I am not exaggerating when I say he is a completely different boy now. His tics have greatly decreased and even when they do pop up, he stays calm and performs the remarkable exercises Dr. Rimler taught him. He knows now to change his breathing or to do subtle stretches to ward off the tic impulse, and no one ever notices that he is doing it. He has so much more confidence and self-esteem now that he is not constantly scrutinizing himself. He felt helpless a few months ago, and now he feels like he is in control of his condition, which makes all the difference.
I cannot praise Dr. Rimler enough. She has been an absolute angel and has blessed and transformed my family with her patience, dedication, and support. I would give her 100 stars if I could!
