Having problems with message search?
thank you for replying. After serious reflection over this thesis project, I have come to the same conclusion as you, and have changed my focus to a more holistic centered approach. I am not including any specific hands on exercises in my recommendations to parents, but am focusing on the person-environment and parent-child relationship interactions, which has such a big impact on and is so important to the feeding and mealtime experience. I am citing your publications and seminars in the lit review of the thesis, however, and would appreciate your correct citations.
thank you,

Hi Debra,
Congratulations on your accomplishments. Would you feel comfortable completing a surgical procedure from a handbook that you as a non physician purchased? I don't think so. This concern applies also to Beckman Oral Motor Assessment and Intervention.
I do not give permission for publication of the Beckman Oral Motor Interventions without the direct input of the therapist treating the child. I have had several incidents of misuse of the information to the detriment of the child with negative impact for all of the therapists using Beckman Oral Motor Interventions. You may certainly reference the material, but you may not publish the actual protocol and interventions for general use. Do you have the correct citation information?
