I was guided to do clinical research with neurodiverse youngsters ages 5-11 as a result of what I discovered writing They Were Families: How War Comes Home, which is primarily about secondary traumatization. In that research, I found out that the children of veterans are 80% (yes, 80%) more likely to struggle with sensory issues and neurodiversity than the general population.
Read MoreWhen I wrote New Frontiers in Sensory Integration in 2014 (New Forums Press), my aim was to serve the families I was supporting with neurodiverse children. These young people were adopted, had been conceived in an IVF or surrogacy situation, were on the autistic spectrum, had eating disorders, structural struggles, or the children had behavioral problems and health issues that included sensory difficulties. There were also children with combinations of these issues. To meet the needs of these families and their precious, brilliant children I did a significant amount of research. This led to clinical trials that I conducted over a three-year period.

Read MoreWe barely know the true meanings of these words any more. The political structures that house both of them cannot be trusted to deliver either health or justice. They are neither healthy nor just themselves. I do not want to use our precious time to badmouth and point fingers. What I really want to do, for my own health and yours, is to remedy what I see as a healthcare impasse.
Read MoreRegenerative Health is your birthright. Our minds and our bodies have been deceived by a patriarchal, colonizing and authoritarian industrialization of healthcare. The Regenerative Health paradigm is a systemic shift in the content and delivery of healthcare. It is trauma informed, somatically oriented, culturally sensitive, and ignites the elasticity and resilience that is innate to the human nervous system.
