"The polyvagal theory teaches that safety is the treatment. From that foundation, we're looking to create micro moments of finding what does that safety mean again. It might be the sound of the breeze, or it might be being tucked in your bed with a particular blanket, or it might be a certain bird call. What is the thing that can help light up that little bit of safety, and we start to craft and really attend to that", says Aly Dearborn. Aly joins this episode to discuss polyvagal guided therapy and sex education for autistics. To learn about Aly and her services visit http://www.alydmft.com .
