STRIVE for Independence

Experiencia fantástica: My son took Driver's Ed in high school but did not feel ready to get his driver's license when he was 16. Knowing he would have to drive to college after graduation, he agreed to get private "refresher" lessons his senior year. STRIVE was the perfect option for him due to the 1:1 lessons and the Occupational Therapist driving instructors who were able to help him work through his ADHD & anxiety to become a confident and successful driver. The office staff was also very knowledgeable and pleasant to work with. He drove mostly with Nicole and Brandon, and they both were excellent instructors! He passed his driver's license test the first time and is now commuting independently to college 4 days a week. I highly recommend STRIVE for teens (especially neurodivergent teens) who may need some extra help to achieve the milestone of becoming a licensed driver. Although it was expensive, the service received was priceless!

Experiencia fantástica: My husband had an evaluation by Nicole at Strive For Independence. The professionalism exhibited by Nicole and the office staff were exemplary. It’s hard to find an Occupational Therapist with the level of specialization. She has a friendly demeanor and professional at the same time. She has a calm and positive personality. We highly recommend Strive for Independence.

Experiencia fantástica: STRIVE was very thorough, professional and friendly . We covered many areas that tested my ability and I felt competent and confident on completion of my evaluation. Wonderful people who truly understand the challenges of re-gaining driving abilities and leave you with a feeling of having been thoroughly evaluated. I would highly recommend STRIVE for anyone needing special testing.

Experiencia fantástica: Highly skilled, responsive, and compassionate staff. Instilled confidence, while keeping things real. (No false promises). Highest possible praise for their process for helping people who want to see whether or not they are ready to drive.

Experiencia fantástica: I had a fantastic experience learning to drive with Nichol! She made the lessons both fun and engaging, which really helped me stay motivated. I appreciated how she provided a lot of helpful feedback, always encouraging me to improve and build confidence behind the wheel. I highly recommend her as a driving instructor she's knowledgeable, patient, and made the learning process enjoyable. Thank you, Nichol!
