What others have said:
“It’s been the most comprehensive workshop I have attended in years!”
"The seminar was absolutely fantastic! We lapped up every word you said, and felt we had really taken our understanding to the next level. Thank you so much."
"We started with only a very general knowledge of sensory processing, emotional development, etc, and you helped us understand these things with much more depth and nuance, so that we will be able to see a specific child's specific needs and strengths and work with them in specific ways, and that's exactly what we were hoping for! I really hope you'll have the opportunity to use this presentation again with lots more teachers!"
"Thank you, Sanam. You were a wonderful facilitator."
