“Sue has been so helpful with the Home Modification portion of my business. I originally came to her to find out whether I could start a business as a COTA, and she was immediately helpful and supportive. I completed Sue's certification program, and it has really helped me to understand and implement home mods for my clients. I also joined her advanced group, which has continued to further my education on this topic and ensure I am helping my clients to the fullest! A huge "thank you" to Sue for all of her support and advice. I could not have started my OT business without her!”
