Understanding the Barriers to Progress
Many families discover that their loved ones struggle to make progress in therapy due to unaddressed foundational skills. These skills include sensory regulation, focus, and communication. When these areas are not properly addressed, clients may find it challenging to benefit fully from the professional services they receive.

Research shows that unresolved issues in foundational skills can lead to increased stress levels among clients. This heightened stress hinders the brain’s ability to learn and progress effectively. As a result, therapists and educators often spend more time managing behaviors and addressing immediate challenges rather than focusing on long-term goals.
