a developmental psychology practice. We have been directing, operating, and researching for a combined 50 years in programs for neurodevelopment. Our primary tool of Integral Flow Growth Map© has its foundation in work we have gleaned through the years from evidence-based practice and practice-based evidence equally.

Our collaborative approach has elevated the individuals and families along our journey to primary informers and co-architects of our unique delivery. We are connected globally to a group of exceptional practitioners from a wide variety of human development related fields. We work with other associates and founders in maximizing the strengths and potential of our clients. Our ways of “knowing and being” acknowledge that relationships in all areas of life lead us to new possibilities that are rich in capacity and purpose.

Too often, neurologically different (ND) people are called lost when, in truth, the world loses them.
  
Drawing on 65 years of combined practice, Dr. Tara Coker Devine and Dr. Neal Sarahan pioneered an innovative path to recover those who were lost, frozen, or stuck. Frustrated by the limits of conventional therapies, the authors co-created a humane, higher-ground approach that begins with deep engagement: learners, families, clinicians, teachers, and peers walking the path together. 

Through vivid case narratives, using their Integral Flow Growth Map, they reveal the patterns that keep ND individuals stuck, and the small, staged practices that rekindle movement and reignite hope. Their navigation system on the map allows a care guide and learner to locate starting points, then take the next right step toward competence, independence, belonging, and social purpose. 

This book is not a miracle cure or a checklist. It is a map, and a new way forward, made in collaboration with those once labeled “lost,” and illuminating how every person holds real opportunities for growth. Whether you are a parent, educator, clinician, or an ND reader yourself, you’ll find language for what hurts and tools for what helps.
