“Peace of Mind has been a God-send because [he] was resisting my attempts to “help” him with homework. Our relationship was becoming toxic. Because of his tutoring sessions, he is passing all his subjects, keeping up with his assignments, and our relationship is great.”

“When we were referred to Peace of Mind, a little over a year ago, Kristie told me that we had found our village. I still remember our first phone call and the immediate relief and overwhelming gratitude I felt. We spoke for quite some time that evening. I was impressed by Kristie’s professionalism and experience as an educator, but what I remember most is that she listened with understanding rather than judgment and she was compassionate, genuine, caring, and eager to help. Her confidence was reassuring and she squeezed us in for our first session just days after that call, which happened to also be the week of Thanksgiving. She was right! We found our village and we are forever grateful for Kristie and the team at Peace of Mind. It truly is a special place, a community like no other! POM has been a blessing to our family!”
