About the Author Hi, I'm Eve, a former school counselor with a master's degree in School Psychology and a passionate advocate for children and families navigating sensory challenges. As a mom of children with sensory sensitivities, I deeply understand the journey special-needs parents face, and I dedicate myself to researching and sharing practical solutions to help children thrive and feel comfortable in their bodies. My goal is also to empower counselors, therapists, and psychologists with creative strategies and supportive resources to enrich their everyday practice. When I'm not writing or exploring new therapeutic approaches, you'll find me spending quality time with my family and continually seeking inspiration from everyday moments.
