“Dr. Jillani was wonderful. She treated my 9-year old son who is on the autism spectrum. She works at my son’s pace, always validating his experiences and using language that makes him feel safe and understood.
She also told us about resources for autistic children to get ABA support. We are very happy to have her as my son's psychiatrist. ”
