"Kym made the training environment safe and uplifting. I enjoyed the science behind the training, such as the brain, and the legislation she had on hand. Kym had fantastic research and a variety of sources and understandings that are relevant, up to date and factual. I am already using some of the strategies recommended in both my personal and professional life" NDIS Support Worker NSW
