Look at the Person with Amy and Evelyn Guttmann
Rivky sits down with occupational therapists Amy and Evelyn Guttmann to talk about child development. Amy and Evelyn teach about the 3 senses you've never heard of, their feelings on labeling and disorders, why OT is not just about handwriting, and what it really means when someone is sensory.

Better known as the "Guttmann Sisters", their focus has been on educating and empowering the community on the prevention of anxiety and social-emotional delays.

(Hands on Parent Empowerment) Foundation, their specialties include Sensory Integration, NDT training, reflex integration, auditory processing specialization, and behavioral management.
