Parent Perspectives: The Power of Relationship and Community


Listen Later

This episode's guest is Krithika, a Northern California mom to an 11-year-old Autistic son, who discovered DIRFloortime® after years of traditional therapy led to more frustration than progress. That shift changed everything. Now she is a passionate advocate for her son and a connector for other families, supporting parents through social groups and serving on a community advisory board to help improve systems of care for neurodivergent children and their families and shares her journey with us.
