Yep! A big part of my job is teaching parents about their child’s brain/body & how it works in a way that is easy to understand so that they can take what we do inside of the clinic & incorporate it into their daily lives.
In the process of learning the best way to educate my clients I have developed a handful of printed resources, fine tuned how I explain things, and can anticipate needs accordingly.
I'd be willing to bet that the students & families you serve at your school experience the same challenges as my clients.

Michaelene has a positive perspective and helps teachers work within the classroom to meet children’s individual needs, and without disrupting the natural flow of your classroom routines.
She has many little tricks and tweaks that help not just the child she is working with, but all of the children since we love to pass on her tips to everyone in the class.
Michaelene explains why children do what they do and connects the dots of their sensory systems to show you how you can help them. We cross our midline everyday in math!
We love integrating O.T. strategies throughout the curriculum. Just when you’ve tried your last “good idea,” Michaelene has a great perspective and can see what needs to be done to help your students!
