DIR - Floortime Approach
Kayla is a certified Floortime professional and integrates Floortime strategies into practice and regular Occupational Therapy sessions. Some children benefit from the DIR - Floortime program as a stand alone intervention or a precursor to being able to participate effectively in therapy or school.
Floortime focuses on addressing the Functional Emotional Developmental Capacities that support children developing and functioning in modern day’s social world. There is a significant amount of evidence to support this approach in helping neurodivergent children overcome daily struggles that lead to tantrums, tension in the family dynamic, restricted community access, restricted social interaction, poor academic performance, etc.
