Therapies

Every child has the capacity to grow and progress forward - emotionally, socially, cognitively, and academically. The key is to start at the current point in development and provide the appropriate support to move forward. I use a customized approach that follows the path of typical development, focusing on those particular steps that have been missed.

Reflex Integration

A reflex is an automatic motor response to a stimulus. For example, when light shines into our eyes, our pupils contract. Reflexes are extremely important to a child's developing body and brain. They emerge in utero and infancy helping with the birth process and protecting babies in the early months of life. Each reflex carries out a specific task.

Baby Assessments

Do you have concerns about your baby’s movement? Is he or she late in achieving movement milestones (crawling, for example)?

Developmental Movement

Typically developing children progress through a sequence of movements (including crawling) which cause them to become neurologically organized and meet their physical, social, emotional, and cognitive milestones with ease. When obstacles interfere with this developmentally necessary process, problems can arise in all areas of growth.

Educational Support

Are there obstacles in your child’s ability to learn easily? Does he or she need help to be able to get back on track academically?

 

Auditory Integration Training

Hearing challenges can impede development. Auditory processing disorders make it difficult for children to make meaning of what is heard. Sound sensitivities cause children to hear “too well.” Along with overwhelming the auditory system and causing auditory processing difficulties, this can be extremely painful for some children.
