Last week's @dirfloortime conference was an exciting time for our team! @Dr_JennieT summed it up well: "We were able to connect as humans & to really experience our mission in action. I’m not sure there’s anything more wonderful than that." 💜 Here's a sneak peek of #TeamPD!

What's regulation? To many of us, it means having some control over our emotional state. Maintaining regulation can be a challenge for everyone & it can be very challenging for those w/ unique processing differences.

What's your self-regulation strategy?

"We call autism a spectrum for a reason — it’s incredibly diverse — so it makes sense to provide families w/ a better array of evidence-based care options, like developmental interventions." @jdfeder had more to say in this insightful Q&A w/ @ContempPEDS. https://t.co/5wPlXpBbfK

[Haley Moss @haleymossart]

Disclosing a disability is a highly personal and unique decision for everyone.

Having something prepared in advance can help offset anxiety around the actual conversation.
