She specializes in sensory integration and nervous system regulation, supporting children who experience challenges with attention, emotional regulation, sensory processing, body awareness, coordination, and daily functioning.
Daniela works with children and adolescents navigating ADHD, autism, sensory sensitivities, sensory-seeking behaviors, executive functioning challenges, anxiety, and emotional overwhelm. She is also passionate about supporting children with intellectual and developmental disabilities, including Down syndrome, cerebral palsy (CP), and other developmental differences.
