    This episode's guest is Krithika, a Northern California mom to an 11-year-old Autistic son, who discovered DIRFloortime® after years of traditional therapy led to more frustration than progress.

    DIR® Dialogues: Research Supporting DIRFloortime®

    This DIR® Dialogues panel explores the research base behind DIRFloortime®, highlighting both its strong, transdisciplinary foundations and the challenges of measuring developmental, relational change within traditional research models like randomized controlled trials (RCTs). The discussion emphasizes the need to rethink what counts as “evidence,” prioritize outcomes that reflect lived experience and long-term development, and expand research approaches to better support access, funding, and practice across ages and contexts.
