My name is Andrea and I have been an Occupational Therapist since January 2000.  In my years as an OT, I have heard the cries of frustrated parents, witnessed the overwhelmed look on teachers faces, and the swift recommendation of prescription medications from doctors.  I have watched administrators remove students from programs, daycares ask a parent not to send their child anymore and summer/after-school camps say a child was not an appropriate fit.  Why?  The answer is simple.  It is not that the needs of a special child are unreasonable but rather misunderstood.  Specifically, the needs of the child with sensory dysfunction is profoundly unearthed territory.  This website is dedicated to excavate such ground to better meet the needs of these children allowing them to spread their wings and succeed.
