Emotional Support for

Children with Special Needs

Whether you are awaiting a diagnosis or have received one for your child, you have entered a new world.  One that you had not envisioned before.  This can bring about stress, fear and ‘what-if’ thought-loops.

The provision of a parent- engaged support can improve the quality of life for both the parent and the child with special needs.

ODODO has been developed by Catherine O’Brien, a special-needs teacher, personal and business coach, yoga teacher, mindfulness facilitator and meditation student.

“In meetings with parents of children with special-needs, I realised there were few supports available to care for parents’ wellbeing.”

Stories of isolation and difficulties encountered in coping with the balance of stress and happiness in their lives led to ODODO.
