You Are Not Your Child's Therapist with Lisa Rawley, Developmental Specialist in Davis Early Intervention
Lisa Rawley, a developmental specialist in Davis Early Intervention with over 20 years of experience working with children with specials needs, speaks on the podcast "The Rare Life" providing advice and ideas and the feeling that parents do not have to feel like they need to be their child's therapist. They are mom, dad, grandma, grandpa (whom ever is the child's caregiver). She says all the things a parent/caregiver needs to work on in order to help their child to reach their potential can mostly happen during their daily routines. This takes the pressure off of the the feeling that they have to be their child's therapist with the need to schedule specific times a day to provide their child therapy.
