My passion is teaching parents and therapists. This website is filled with fun activities that anyone can use. Every idea I share has been lovingly practiced with my own children, students, and in my own clinic.

Cara speaks regularly at state, local and national conferences for therapists and parents. She offers a wide variety of topics.
