This book is an excellent resource for parents of children with self-regulation issues and the professionals who take care of them. It presents dozens of practical strategies for helping children with many kinds of dysregulation, from autism to Sensory Processing Disorder to ADHD. Therapists will appreciate the well-presented basic theoretical framework, but it is the careful and clear explanation of direct interventions that parents can do at home that is invaluable.”
