Unlike traditional therapies that focus on specific tasks, our approach stimulates multiple areas of the brain at once through fun, sensory-based activities.
This builds stronger, more flexible connections in the brain, helping your child handle everyday challenges—even under stress.
Over time, this leads to permanent improvements, fostering independence, confidence, and problem-solving skills that last a lifetime.
We understand your concerns about your child’s progress and future independence.
Our program is backed by science, proven through randomized controlled trials, and trusted by over 300 health professionals.
It comes with a full money-back guarantee, so you can feel confident that the activities we prescribe will work for your child, with results often visible within days.
We’ve helped over 3,000 families, and our program is effective for adults and teenagers too, often producing faster results in older individuals.
Our approach brings the whole family together in the therapeutic process.
Instead of stressful sessions that feel like work, our activities feel like play, creating a relaxed and supportive home environment.
Involving siblings or other family members in the activities increases engagement, reduces anxiety, and ensures that everyone benefits from the experience.
This shared family time strengthens bonds, making therapy more effective and enjoyable for everyone.
Our program is designed to be simple, with clear, easy-to-follow instructions that fit seamlessly into your daily life.
You won’t need special equipment, and we provide ongoing support to guide you every step of the way.
With a regular weekly schedule, direct access to Claudie, and personalized feedback on your sessions, you’ll feel empowered and confident, knowing that you’re making real progress without the exhaustion and burnout often associated with traditional therapies.

In most settings it makes sense to assign a member of your team to champion and coordinate Sensory Enrichment with the others. This person will receive their own weekly coaching sessions.
6 weeks is usually all it takes for Sensory Enrichment champions to become confident in coaching their peers, but we can extend the coaching where needed.
We never leave you alone. We are partners in this.
There is no extra fee for scheduling additional coaching sessions.
It is in our best interest to train confident and competent educators in bringing improved behavior regulation and academic performance to their students.

Full, Progressive, Customized Program and Support for 12 months
$12,000
Annual payment
10 staff + 50 students
Features
Our program director will prescribe a set of Sensory Enrichment activities to do with your students, customized to their current levels and needs.
All you need to do is complete a 25-question survey for each special education student in the classroom.
To keep things simple, the program will be customized to the classroom as a whole and you will do the same protocols with all the students.
Where appropriate, we can also prescribe a custom program to individual students.
Every 3 weeks (or 4 weeks depending on your situation) you move on to the next level of programming.
The program is designed to gradually improve your students’ ability to regulate their own behavior and to process and learn abstract concepts like math.
Every time you get new Sensory Enrichment activities for your classroom, we will coach you on:
• the purpose of each protocol,
• how to dial things up or down for each student to optimize brain stimulation,
• what materials you can use in your classroom.

Mendability is not a cure. We don’t aim to change the autistic brain. Our dream is for your child to be able to express their true spontaneous selves, without the burden of feeling overwhelmed.
Sensory Enrichment Therapy is an effective, affordable, evidence-based, clinically-validated program to help living well with autism.
Clinical trials have shown that the majority of parents see improvements in their child’s autism symptoms after 6 months of Sensory Enrichment Therapy.
Parent report improvements in a wide range of issues, such as sleep, behavior, learning, speech development, sensory processing, self-awareness, eating diversification, etc.
This not just for autism. Mendability is a method of helping the brain, which impacts almost everything you do. We have worked with a wide range of conditions, including Alzheimer’s, Depression, Parkinson’s, Cerebral Palsy, ADHD, Addiction, etc.
The published clinical data shows that Mendability is effective up to the age of 18.
While we have not conducted an IRB clinical trial on adults, the science of brain plasticity suggests that adults may benefit from the program.
And indeed we have anecdotal examples of adults and seniors who have improved while using Sensory Enrichment Therapy.
Mendability is designed as a therapy for autism. However, the principles of Sensory Enrichment Therapy apply to any person interested in boosting their neurological wellness.
For example, our clinical data shows improvements in children with ADHD and Down syndrome as well.
We have seen anecdotal success in using the therapy to help people living with many other conditions, but we have not yet validated these results in randomized controlled trials.
Sensory Enrichment Therapy for autism provides simple, natural sensory experiences. Mendability is completely non-invasive. It does not involve any pharmaceutical products or any other kind of compound.
However, we often get reports from parents during the first few days of the program who indicate temporary inconveniences. We believe these may be related to therapy’s impact on brain plasticity.
Parents describe these first few days as “emotional storms,” with more moodiness, more irritability. In some rare instances, there have been temporary sleep disruptions, and changes in stool consistency. All of these resolved themselves after a few days.
We believe it is normal.
You do the activities with your special person at home.
We will coach you online, or over the phone to make sure you are doing it well.
With our standard coaching plan, you can have as many coaching sessions as you need.
You typically are assigned 4 or 5 activities to do each day. The activities are designed to be done together and in order, as they often build on each other.
In total, enrichment sessions take about 10 minutes each.
We recommend doing two sessions per day, as well as short sensory pairings during the day to support the repair work that was started during the therapy sessions.
The quickest answer is that we complement Occupational Therapy by inducing a state of enhanced plasticity in the brain, which accelerates their work.
There is definitely overlap between Sensory Integration principles and Sensory Enrichment principles. Both acknowledge that there is a wide variety of sensitivities in how signals from the environment are processed.
One important thing that OT’s have that we don’t is a library of exercises that can soothe the sensory system quickly and help fill a need of a person to be stimulated or to have the stimulation lowered.
At Mendability, we focus on helping the brain learn how to process the environment more normally so as not to have these needs, but it is very useful to be able to satisfy these short term needs immediately.
While most parents are reporting visible changes in their family member after just a few weeks of therapy, we recommend 6 months as the minimum duration for results to “stick.”
For some people 6 months is all you need. You can keep working on your brain health with Sensory Enrichment as long as you want.
No, Autism is not what we are trying to “fix.”
What we are trying to help with are the challenges that are preventing your family member to be comfortable, confident, and happy.
We can help them sleep better, feel calmer, be less affected by sensory processing issues, filter background noise, read body language, etc.
We believe very strongly that if it were not for the talents and aspirations of our autistic friends, very little innovation would have happened. So, let’s see if we can make it easier on them, while we also learn to appreciate what they bring and worry less about trying to make them look like “us.”
Collaboration with your child is one of the keys to success with Mendability. If your child loves baseball, use baseball images. If your child does not like the smell of lavender, try a citrus scent. The goal is to work with your child until Mendability is as engaging as it can be.
We know that life happens and we developed the program with real life in mind.
Mendability is designed to be short, fun and enjoyable to do. It’s OK to miss exercises here and there. We’re in this for the long run.
Our advice is to act as you typically would in a situation where your child does not want to cooperate. There is not one solution that works for every child. Patience will be essential, and it will be beneficial for you to read the advice given for each exercise and understand the minimum performance needed to get benefit from each exercise. These exercises are learning exercises and may take time to adjust to.
In all cases, patience, love and understanding are your keys. A useful piece of advice is to discuss the benefits of the therapy with your child even understand what you are saying.
The first few weeks of the therapy are in most cases characterized by what many parents call “emotional storms.” If your child experiences unusual emotional responses, it is because Mendability is working.
You will be able to see your child’s progress on a graph on your home page. This progress chart is intended to help you keep track of your child’s changes and new capabilities.
Sometimes, your child’s improved ability to do an exercise will show you that he/she has improved in one area. Many times, you will find yourself asking, “Did he just do what I think he did?”
For improvements to stick we recommend that you do the program for at least 3 months. For most parents, what tends to happen first is improvement in the areas of awareness, attention, sensory processing, communication and social skills. Parents seem to report that cognitive abilities, motor abilities, etc happen later in the program, after 6 months of therapy.
This is not a quick fix. Nothing really is. Most individuals should expect to be doing this program for at least a year.
Mendability is not currently covered by insurance. It’s not a bug. It’s a feature.
By not being insurance-driven the program and support you receive is truly implemented for what a person needs, not by an insurance agent or what a random insurance company thinks they need.
We did our best to keep this affordable. It’s cheaper than music, sports or dance lessons. You can do this for $2 per day. A coffee is usually $5.
You are in complete control.
Anywhere there is an internet connection.
We offer a 30-day guarantee. If you feel for any reason that Mendability is not for you during your first month, simply let us know and we will cancel your account and refund 100% of your payment.
