I loved how the speaker went into depth about sensory processing and integration, and how that impacts the child during play. The sample goals were helpful because, yes, as SLPs we are very data driven. Also, I bill commercial insurance plans and need supporting data in order to continue therapy. The videos were helpful to illustrate the different parts of the hierarchy. Pacing was perfect. Great course!

I learned that the DIRFloortime framework can be applied across ages and diagnoses, and this course taught me its principles, including FEDCs , with case studies showing practical goals and therapy activities, including virtual sessions.

The segmentation of this huge amount of information was very helpful and allowed better focus and comprehension. The teacher's style, experience and confidence make it so enjoyable to learn. Though I've been practicing for many years and was trained in several similar modalities, I found this the most helpful in honing my observation skills.

I took the DIR floortime first into course via their website a few years ago and this information was a wonderful review
by

on
November 8, 2025
This course was excellent in that it easily broke down each step in a comprehensive way. I enjoyed watching the videos and learning about examples of each strategy or concept definition (especially vestibular and proprioception). I was thinking about ways to integrate FEDC into my own therapy sessions throughout the entire course. The "cheat sheet" will be extremely helpful in carrying over learned concepts and assisting me in better understanding and using FEDC.

This course shows that it is possible to have enriching child-led therapy that takes into account invidual differences and is not compliance based. I also found it helpful to think of the ways that this is a method that can be used across a lifespan and is not just for children.

This is a great model that focuses on each individual. It takes the time to analyze and utilize strengths, relationships, and involves others. It was interesting to learn about how to focus on more than just surface-level behaviors. It can be hard to do this in the moment, but this model does a great job explaining each of the concepts.

I like how she focused on the individual and how that may differ in on each case by case basis. It really reflected the teachings of DIR. I also like that she explained limitations in the CLINICIAN. For example, not every client is going to be a good match with every clinician.

This course resonates with the clinical expertise I've gained as a therapist. It fits with what I know and has given me lots of ideas for how I can grow. I have already used the principles I learned in this course with my middle-schoolers in a self-contained classroom, and I see so much engagement! This is a good course to help you reflect on what you're doing and why, rather than just isolated therapy tasks. I know it will influence my future work as well. Highly recommend!

This course goes beyond basic concepts, helping participants deeply understand the Functional Emotional Developmental Capacities (FEDCs), Individual Differences, and Relationship-based components of DIRFloortime®. It equips professionals to apply these principles in meaningful and practical ways by teaching how to observe and respond to a person’s unique sensory, motor, and cognitive profiles—essential for creating tailored support strategies.
