"Beyond Words: Behavior & the Visual Brain"

July 14, 2025 • Velma and Daphne--OT's in cahoots • Season 1 • Episode 7

Daphne and Velma talk transitions, tantrums, visual thinking, Temple Grandin, while applying it in their usual tongue-in-cheek style, to restaurants, school, and Daphne's running obsession with Disney World.

Teaching parents to don sensory goggles for every situation--which makes behaviors less scary, and more predictable.
