EP43 features the latest installment of our Shining Stars series, where we sit down with former SMart Center patients – or their parents – and discuss how they overcame Selective Mutism. This episode, we meet Pushkar and Nicole Marathe, the parents of SMart Center Shining Star, Toyam.

In this episode, Dr. E, Pushkar and Nicole discuss Toyam’s SM journey, finding the right support for your child with SM, celebrating milestones and much, much more.
