Dr. Palmer has been a blessing to our family. He has gone the extra mile to support our child and our whole family. He has provided very informative assessments, and his coaching has been instrumental in meetings at school. He has been and continues to be a lighthouse in navigating new waters.

Kelsey M. Teacher and ADHD Certified Coach

Dr Palmer's insight on supporting  neurodivergent children is both powerful and practical. As a teacher, creating a space where students feel safe, seen and valued is essential and that starts with connection before correction. His emphasis on building  nervous system safety through relationships is a vital reminder that regulation comes through co-regulation. This work is a must for educators committed to honoring neurodiversity and helping every child thrive and being unapologetically  themselves.

I have a doctorate in Special Education and 30 years of classroom experience. But when I became a father to six neurodivergent, trauma-impacted children, my degrees didn't stop the meltdowns. I tried sticker charts, time-outs, and "consequences." They only made things worse.

I had to stop trying to fix my kids and start rewiring my response. Now, I help parents and teachers trade chaos for connection using the same nervous-system-first framework that saved my family.
