Many thanks Tan. A very informative session. I learned a lot about ASD.

Tan was very knowledgeable and an excellent facilitator. Lots to take away for clients, family and MYSELF.

After doing some research I was advised of Tan Curtis and her company Fabic but it was the ability to work with me through SKYPE that first tweaked my interest. No more long travelling to get to specialists now I was able to access them in my own home. After an at home visit where Tan came interacted & assessed Connor, I started on my road to understanding!! I have undertaken one-to-one sessions with Tan Curtis since April 2010 and workshop courses with the Fabic team since July 2010.

My wife has attended sessions at Fabic to help our daughter who has anorexia. My wife gets support for both my daughter but now herself. As I am working I’m not able to attend the sessions. My wife comes home and tells me what pages to read in the book to help explain her session. I now don’t feel like I am missing out and can also help support my daughter.

I wish I had this knowledge years ago. It would have made bringing up my son easier on both of us. Bouquets to Tan, easy to learn from, very approachable, the subject was covered extensively but effectively. Did not doodle all day!

Tan has been attending a fortnightly staff meeting via skype to support us to case manage our students with difficult behaviour. It has been great to have her part of the team so we are able to review regularly our strategies and change them quickly when not working. Our behaviour incident with our initial child reduced  dramatically but we have also noticed our school suspensions have reduced.

We came to Fabic to get support for our Mr 8 who we thought was destroying our family. In the process we realised we needed support with our marriage, as it was the way we were with each other that was causing our son’s anxiety and tantrums. We had been to marriage counselling before but we did not click with the therapists we saw and didn’t really get any support. Tan Curtis was quick to identify the problem and worked with us both in a way that neither of us felt she was taking sides. She gave us understanding of ourselves and how to communicate with each other. Our marriage is now stronger than ever, and our son is now enjoying life without tantrums.

Excellent value and professional delivery! This was a wonderful course, applicable to everyone.

The information was presented in a very clear and structured manner. One of the best presented workshops I've been to in a long time.

I first saw Tan present her one day workshop and realised she was different to anyone else I had seen present. I wanted to know more. I approached her and she told me about her staff mentoring programme. I now Skype Tan when I am having difficulty with my own clients and she is able to help me understand my client so I can support them in a way I was never able to before. I have also found that I am now much better at understanding and supporting myself which has allowed me to work more confidentially and supportively with clients. Thanks Tan.

Very pleased with the course. Completely different understanding on how to help my autistic son.

I would love to see some of this as compulsory component of the training for all carers dealing with challenging behaviours, The course flowed extremely well, each part leading to the next and conclusion.

It felt like you were talking about and describing our students. So many light bulb moments and so great to hear someone else talk about difficult behaviour. Perfect! Please start up a clinic in Melbourne.

Great strategies for improving/assisting the lives of people we support plus implementing the sequence of Behaviour. Excellent and easy to understand.

The whole concept of collecting data is very useful to me. The thermometer concept is excellent!

At last a book with strategies we can use and not just theory. I bought this book to help with my job but within the first few pages I realised that there is so much to support with myself and my own relationships in life. Great work Tan, will look forward to your next book.

As a presenter, Tan was very calming and well presented. Lots of useful strategies and examples were given. Informative and not too technical.

I found this course really understandable and I could use what I had learned right away and put it into practice.

Very Practical! Great handouts given and Tan gave an excellent presentation full of relevant information.
