“We had the privilege of working with Family First for an intensive 7-week program for our 4-year old son combining Speech Language Pathology and Occupational Therapy (with their partners at Kids Connect). Prior to being referred here, the road we were on was not easy. Around age 3, our sweet and happy boy started becoming angry and aggressive, exhibiting some pretty "strong willed" and often times "defiant" behavior. By age 4, his behaviors worsened and started causing problems in school and with friends. We sought help which, before finding Family First, came in the form of mainstream behavioral intervention which focuses primarily on teaching parents how to respond to and correct "problem" behaviors in children. While these "tools" worked to elicit a specific behavior from our son, the approach felt very robotic and at times “soldier-like”. We couldn't shake the feeling that we were essentially applying a "bandaid" to his symptoms without figuring out and tending to the "why" behind them. Our son’s anger and aggression were still there; we had just effectively gotten him to hold it all in. This just didn't seem right. We had to know why our happy, sweet, affectionate, and loving toddler had become an increasingly angry and aggressive preschooler with his head down anxiously absorbed in his own world. This led us to advocate on his behalf, research all the options and eventually find real, life-changing help at Family First. At Family First, our experience has been nothing short of amazing. We feel extraordinarily fortunate to have found practitioners of the kind of work they do. It is honestly like a whole new world has been opened up for us and for our son. We believe (and hope) it is just a matter of time before the work they do becomes the way everyone works with children. Everything we’ve learned makes sense and feels right. We immediately saw positive results that really helped our son, instead of just putting a bandaid on things. Vanessa and her team focused on the foundation, the root causes of our son's behaviors, the "why", and began treating our son's needs on that very basic level. The results have been astounding. Now, instead of focusing on how to respond to our son's problem behaviors, we are finding that we rarely have any problem behaviors to respond to at all! After only 3 weeks, our son went from needing correction and time-outs several times per day at home and at school...to... now receiving glowing reports daily at school and only 2 time-outs in over 3 weeks. We know we are on a lifelong journey of development but we are so grateful for what this program is doing for our precious son. He is once again the happy little boy he was when he came into this world! The DIR Floor-time model that they employ should be standard parent education for everyone with children, not just families with specific needs. But for those of us who's children need additional help, this type of therapy has the potential to dramatically change the trajectory of a child's life. We are forever grateful to Vanessa, Cris, Michelle, Leslie and the entire team at Family First and Kids Connect.”

“I’d like to take a moment to express my thoughts when it comes to beginning a workout program with a trainer. I’ve had several trainers over the past but one stands out beyond the rest. Medalist Performance Advanced Tactical Athlete Strength and Conditioning (A-TASC) training program is by far the best and most successful, with that being said one must understand that you get out of it what your willing to put into it. For example if you put in 100% effort you will see results as well as feel them. If your willing to put forth the effort, time and have the discipline to follow instructions that Lealem provides you will be amazed. But I stress the importance when it’s time to train, YOU TRAIN push everything else to the side for the time being and merely focus on the task at hand. You can spend hundreds or thousands of dollars and countless hours in the gym and not reach the goals you set. That’s where a trainer that knows and understands your goals comes in with a huge success rate. I personally have been involved in Law Enforcement ten plus years, most of which where on Tactical / Elite squads and I highly recommend this program which is challenging but ultimately very rewarding. A Special Thanks Lealem, a trainer that is committed,willing to go above and beyond, very flexible with hours and days, he is always willing to help and shares knowledge to be successful. Don’t give up, keep pushing remember you want this. SUCCESS IS NO ACCIDENT.”

They help you with your form and make all of the classss fun and challenging. First workout studio I’ve been to that I genuinely look forward to coming to class every time. I only wish I’d signed up for unlimited classes sooner!”

“For the last seven months, Dr. Brownfield and her staff have been nothing short of wonderful. I needed an implant in July and so far the process has been great. Today, I called with an emergency and I was in the chair no more than 20 minutes later. Kelly, Wendy, Amanda and Dr. Brownfield stopped everything they were doing to take care of me. I am so happy I was able to find this wonderful group of women here in Houston!”

“This barber shop offer some of the best hot towel with razor shave I have ever experienced and the cleanest fade I have had in a long time. I came in town and found this place from Google and I am glad that I came to this barber shop. I am proud to say that they have some of the best service I've had in a long time. Thank you Lone Star. I forgotten the barbers name, but he's the one in the first chair when you come in.”
