Sensory Processing
Being able to understand information from the environment is crucial for functioning well. Struggles in this area can cause problems with social skills, learning, and play. Donna can uncover difficulties in this area & intervene through treatment and parent coaching.

Self Esteem
When a child struggles with motor or sensory skills, it can affect their sense of competence. With Donna’s expertise and the power of neuroplasticity, a child can overcome these challenges and find success.
-
Social Skills
A child's social skills are deeply connected to their ability to play, communicate, engage motorically, and interact with those around them. Donna's groundbreaking intervention, 'The Proprioceptive Continuum,' has achieved remarkable success in enhancing these areas.

Fine Motor Functioning
A child’s ability to use their hands effectively supports play, visual skills, motor coordination, and handwriting, all of which are foundational to academic functioning. Donna can intervene to improve a child’s performance.

Mealtime / Food Intake
Picky eating or restricted eating is often due to oral hypersensitivity &/or established patterns around food. Donna can help you and your child begin to have healthier, more positive routines around eating.
