Articles and Guides for Parents | Hopeful Neuron
Written by Adi and Dana

Articles on autism, ADHD and sensory processing.
Written for parents, not professionals.

Most of what is written about autism, ADHD and sensory processing is written for clinicians. These articles are written for parents trying to understand what may be going on with their child and what they can try at home. Primitive reflexes, the nervous system, the cerebellum. No jargon.

They are our experience and our view, not medical advice, and some of the ideas in them are debated. See our page on the science behind what we do for what the research shows.
