Eileen Devine is a parent of a child with FASD, a parenting coach and workshop facilitator. She's one of our favourite go-to's for warm, intelligent, FASD-informed advice and strategies that work for those with brain-based differences.
In common with FASD-CAN Navigator Anna Gundesen, Eileen is a certified FASCETS training facilitator.
As she says, "My unique practice with parents and caregivers, supported by more than 50 years of research on the brain, centers on understanding neurobehavioral conditions as brain-based physical disabilities with behavioral symptoms. Experience has shown me that with increased education and understanding, frustration and anxiety decrease and challenging behaviors begin to resolve."
