Maren Lindsay Therapy

Maren Lindsay Therapy Offering nervous system supports for neurodivergent families through connection, art, nature & play-based programs. NOW OFFERING:
Certified in 1.

As well as SSP & iLs Focus (listening programs) Safe & Sound Protocol and 2. iLs Focus Program

1. Safe & Sound Protocol (SSP), developed by Dr. Stephen Porges, is an auditory intervention designed to help reduce stress and auditory sensitivity. Based on the Polyvagal Theory, by calming the physiological and emotional states, the door is opened for improved communication and social engagement. This non-invasive intervention involves listening to music that has been processed to retune the nervous system specifically to introduce a sense of safety and the ability to socially engage. This allows clients to better interpret not only human speech, but more importantly, the emotional meaning of language. Once interpersonal interactions improve, spontaneous social behaviours, and an enhanced ability to learn, self-regulate and engage are often seen. SSP can be delivered in person or remotely. Please send me a message for further details on this program.


2. iLs Focus Programs are available through in-home sessions or during school. iLs Focus Program can benefit people of all ages - including, but not limited to ADHD, Autism, Auditory Processing, Learning Abilities, Sensory Processing, Reading, and Speech Problems. "iLs is based on the fact that we can change our brain – we can essentially re-wire it through specific and repeated stimulation, a concept known as neuroplasticity. As in building strength and endurance with physical exercise, we are able to build neurological pathways and synaptic activity at any age." "iLs trains for brain/body integration through a staged approach, starting with the fundamentals of sensory integration and then extending through more complex cognitive functions, including language, self-expression and social skills." http://integratedlistening.com/the-science-of-how-ils-works/

*** Other supports for families include play-based programs, sensory integration, homeschooling and respite. I have been in the field for over 15 years and am passionate about supporting families holistically as possible. With my clients, we have worked on developing educational, social and life skills. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions and/or pricing. marenlindsaytherapy@gmail.com
