Sensory-Based Consulting
We are excited to offer virtual consulting services, using a sensory-based approach to assist caregivers in creating an environment that supports both self-regulation and co-regulation.
These consulting services will also be an environment for collaboration in which in-home/community strategies can be created to support successful participation in daily activities!
