Beyond the therapy room, Joel speaks and trains on neurodiversity — in person and virtually, for audiences of any size. That includes consultation with other therapists, continuing education courses, conferences, and programming for businesses and school districts.

If you've seen Joel speak and want to bring that conversation to your team, practice, or district, we'd love to hear from you.
