Affect Autism

Developmental, Individual differences, Relationship-based (DIR®) Expert Training Leader and Occupational Therapist Keith Landherr, founder and director of Little Buddies Pediatric Therapy, Inc. just outside of Vancouver, British Columbia, discusses how parents are often focused on fine motor skills and how the development of gross motor skills are a pre-cursor to them. We talk about how Keith communicates the process with parents in order to foster an understanding and appreciation for the sometimes subtle, important work of the occupational therapist. It complements what was covered in my recent episode with Occupational Therapist Maude Le Roux about going slower to move faster.Link to the show notes with links to key discussion points and other ways to view or hear the episode here: ⁠https://affectautism.com/2022/02/05/motor-skills/Consider joining our DIR® Parent Network or becoming an Affect Autism member for bonus content and support from a like-minded community of Floortimers here: ⁠⁠https://affectautis
