HOW IT WORKS
DANIELLE JoY FrEESE
Doctor of Occupational Therapy
O.T. PAReNt COACH
Dear Parents,
I'm here to empower you to navigate your child's Neurodivergence. Through education and tools, you can find more joy in your relationship, and meet your child’s needs in the moment.
​
Many parents just like you are stuck on waitlists for months and need answers now. That’s why I created Joy Therapy And Consulting. I can help if:
​
-
Your child is stuck on a waitlist for services
-
Your child is in therapy but you would like more one-on-one support
-
Your child has finished therapy, but you have ongoing challenges
​
As a Doctor of Occupational Therapy with years of experience working with neurodivergent children (SPD, ADHD, Autism, Dyspraxia, Anxiety, etc.), I offer one-on-one parent coaching from both a strength-based and relationship-based approach.​​
​
I live my mission as a therapist by helping you live your mission as a parent.
MEET DANIELLE
Parent meetings not only helped us to understand where certain behaviors came from, but also how to help regulate those behaviors in a healing and gentle manner both at home and school.

MY APPROACH:
I'm a parent and a neurodiversity affirming Doctor of Occupational Therapy with years of experience educating and coaching caregivers, and their family support systems.
​
I offer one-on-one caregiver consults that:
​
-
Decode your child's neurodivergence (their unique way of thinking, behaving, and perceiving the world) through education and a strength-based approach.
​
-
Empowers you to make informed choices about what kind of support services are best for your child.
​
-
Helps you feel capable and confident when navigating challenging situations with your child through personally tailored plans.
NEURODIVERSITY-AFFIRMING THERAPY
As a neurodiversity-affirming therapist, I recognize that neurological diversity is a natural part of human variation. My goal is to help your family embrace the uniqueness and strengths of your neurodivergent child and to help your children find success at home, in school, and out in the community.
Having a personalized plan from a professional such as Danielle made this much easier for us as parents. Not only did this help our child to self regulate, but it also helped our relationship as parents because it took the pressure off of us to have all of the answers.
