"Our son had been in occupational therapy for years for sensory integration dysfunction and although my husband was willing to help with at-home therapies, it wasn't until we both took Christy's sensory overview course that we both fully understood how sensory integration affects our son and how treatment can help. The course gave us the knowledge to assist our son in finding what he needed to keep his "engine" green and allowed all of us to be on board with his treatment!"

"I found the overview to be invaluable in my understanding of my son's
sensory issues. My son was four when I first met Christy at her overview. So
often, you hear behavior, behavior, behavior from well-meaning, but
uneducated and inexperienced teachers, doctors and therapists. Christy's
overview answered so many of the what, why and how questions that I had. As
a parent, it is painfully hard to see your child struggle where other
children cruise right along. After the overview, I had new tools and the
power of knowledge to help me help my son. He is now 7 years old, playing
football, baseball, and thriving in school. The overview was one of the
first and most important steps that I took with my son. After attending Christy's playroom seminar, we turned the extra bedroom into
a mini engine room. We put mattresses on the floor and hung a swing (our
son's favorite) from the ceiling. We used a thick stretchy lycra fabric
that he could bounce, swing, spin, or just sit in and feel deep pressure. He started many of his days in the swing to get himself regulated, and he
used it after school to help him relax. Christy gave us so many great ideas
to try, that there was something for every child's sensory profile. We did ours on a very small scale and budget but feel like it made a big impact."

"When I have parents attend Christy's overview series, the parents gain a deeper understanding of their child's sensory processing skills which helps them to follow through more effectively at home . My own sessions, as a results, become more productive and the child makes greater progress overall. "
Stephanie Young, Occupational Therapist, Atlanta
"Christy gave my child practical, invaluable tools to take charge of his behavior and to understand how his 'engine runs.' He learned so much and is now successful in areas that before were challenging. With a strong and loving energy, Christy challenged my child to take responsibility for himself and the impact he has on others. Christy is a great listener and extremely skilled with children."
Rebecca C., son, age 7, Atlanta
"Christy’s overview was the first communication we had that made sense and brought the pieces of Sensory Processing Disorder together in a coherent fashion. We had been reading and seeing another OT, but didn’t feel like we reached “the big leagues” until her overview."
