Comments about the course:

"This course offers some of the most valuable tools and activities for children and adults that I have ever seen since I started practicing OT! I have seen these movements make powerful changes in my clients and help unlock and improve their motor skills, emotional regulation, cognitive functioning and self-esteem!"
Maggie Hall, OTR/L, Atlanta, GA

"My 9 year old with sensory processing disorder has been significantly helped. Both his sensory seeking behavior and hypersensitivities became greatly diminished.”
Jessica Ealson, CA

"In my 16 years of clinical practice as an occupational therapist, with an extensive continued educational background, I have never before came across a single tool that is able to make such a profound and immediate difference in both neuro-typically developing and disabled pediatric populations."
Marina K., OTR/L, Brooklyn, NY.

"This course has connected so many dots for me when it comes to providing effective strategies and interventions to so many types of children to improve their quality of life and ability."
Physical Therapist, PA

"Brain and Sensory Foundations was so comprehensive--the manual, handouts, the video sessions. It was obviously a labor of love. I highly recommend it for any professional who works with children."
Laura Masciarelli, PT, Wantagh, New York

"I have been practicing OT for almost 25 years of which at least 20 of those years have been in pediatrics. I have attended many conferences/courses over the years. This course by far has been the most beneficial. It is the only course I have attended that some part can be applied to every student/client on my caseload."
Jennifer Everett, OTR
