Portraits of the Pioneers is an in-depth look at those who have been actively involved in the exploration, development, and practice of somatic touch therapy.
This episode introduces Linda's recent book - which fulfills the work and wishes of her dear, belated mentor, Louisa Silva - offering a "very different view" of how to use touch to work with children with autism. "Touch," says Linda, "is the basis to create the pathway that opens sensory doors."
The protocol helps children normalize a self-regulatory process that can help them manage stress behaviors. Linda is a teacher with a capacity to elegantly convey complex thoughts that are accessible to all.
