Meet Gabriela Hennigan, M.A, B.A.
I am Ireland's only certified Melillo Method TM practitioner and a childhood neuro-developmental specialist registered with IAFNR (The Interdisciplinary Association of Functional Neurosciences and Rehabilitation) in the USA. I have special interest in the Functional Connectivity and Brain Asymmetry.
I am a certified Interactive Metronome provider, a reflex integration therapist, a social skills trainer, a behaviour therapist & a special education teacher registered with the Teaching Council of Ireland.
I have the overall 10 year's experience in the area of special education and therapeutic interventions, which I acquired in the USA, Ireland and Poland. The organisations I have worked for are: Autism Research Institute, Integrative Therapies Centre for Autism, Ltd and Brain Integration Therapy & Consulting in Dublin.
The content of my training and in-person therapy I provide to the families with children and adults with neuro-developmental and neurological conditions, is based on my personal and professional experience from work with the complex cases, and not only from the book.
''My 17 years old son has been in the virtual neuro-sensory-motor program with Gabriela since September 2023. During this time, he managed to get his first job on the golf course and training to become a carpenter. The improvements relate to his increased confidence, much better conversational skills and better articulation. He got more toned, fit and enjoys daily physical exercises with consistently better scores. He has been working on the interactive metronome at home for a few months now. We noticed consistent improvements with neurotiming what shows as decreasing MS scores in his IM home program performance reports''
Melrie from Ireland
" Our 7 year old son improved his articulation and emotional regulation. Morning meltdowns have gone away and he is happy to go to school. The changes started from week 1 of our home-based program with Gabriela''
Damien from Ireland
'' My son has been doing the virtual brain-integration program with Gabby for dyslexia. In the first few weeks we noticed significant improvements with handwriting - he started writing more neatly. His swimming improved and eagerness to participate in the swimming competition. He improved articulation and speech. Progress has been consistent since the first week of our home program."
Alison from the USA
'' We traveled from Luxembourg to the intensive theracamps. The intensity has been key in unlocking our child's expressive language and increasing his motivation and attention.
Gabriela is a very helpful experienced professional, we highly recommend the services with her!''
Diana from Luxembourg
''Gabriela has a practical understanding of how to apply the theory in our family's every day lives.
Thank you Gabriela, you are highly recommended!''
Alex from Ireland
'I have just completed my course with Gabriela and I’m very happy with the impact it has had on our household
and how we are approaching interacting with our daughter. Gabriela is very knowledgeable on a range
of techniques and we have
seen very positive results already! I’m excited to continue on and see what
further progress we can make using the techniques
I have learned.'
Sinead from the UK
'Gabriela is a very knowledgeable, cheerful, encouraging SEN Teacher. She teaches from years of personal experience teaching and training her own child. That connection is invaluable and highly valued as a fellow parent. She is very adaptable to the needs of the parents. I highly value her coaching and would recommend anyone who has a child with Autism to undertake coaching with her. During current times when we have to stay at home with our kids, this training is even more important. And the ease of online coaching makes it so easy and accessible to anyone across the globe''
Hina from the USA
''The online coaching has been very helpful and we’ve learned a lot! I highly recommend Gabriela, she is a fantastic coach - really knowledgeable and professional, but mostly, the insights she provides is personal, focusing on your child’s profile and needs. It is also well emphasized the opportunity to learn and support our children on a daily basis. At the end of the sessions, I was feeling inspired and motivated, more in control of my life. I also enjoyed the fact that it was on-line, as it suits our busy routine. I would recommend this to anyone as it is very informative and just a great reminder of good parenting.''
Marcia from Northern Ireland
''We couldn't be happier! The positive impact of the online relationship development and sensory motor brain therapies is life changing. My son looks forward to the time he gets to spend with Gabby! We would highly recommend Gabby!''
Michelle from Ireland
' We have only had three sessions of Sensory Integration and already our son is more engaged and talking more. We travel from Galway every weekend but so far it's definitely worth it to us. Our 6yr old has received plenty of 'assessments' over the years but very little actually OT sessions. And no services at all over the last 2 years.''
Ann from Ireland
''Gabriela is an amazing professional! She is very experienced and supportive! Between the benefits of the practice, she well emphasises the opportunity to learn and support our children on a daily basis. She provided us with techniques to assist and support our child in many different ways, and how to implement them at home, to extend the learning process beyond hours of therapy. The coaching program has been very helpful and we’ve learned a lot! I highly recommend!''
Marcia from Brazil
'' We travelled from Wexford during the summer to the intensive camps, Gabby was brilliant and the therapies were great and Gabby was so helpful in guiding us on what more we could do at home also, we would highly recommend''
Helen from Ireland
