Dillen Hartley, Occupational Therapist & Business Owner, Advanced Therapy Solutions, Greenville, South Carolina

As Co-Owner of Advanced Therapy Solutions in Greenville, S.C., Mr. Hartley manages 6 outpatient Physical and Occupational Therapy clinics. He integrates multiple modalities in his work with autism, including occupational therapy, rhythm-based therapy and the sound and movement program developed by Integrated Listening Systems. The growth of his businesses are evidence of his ability to integrate different modalities into programs which are both uniquely effective as well as customized for clients’ specific needs. Mr. Hartley speaks widely - South Africa (his birthplace), the European Union and the U.S. – on a multi-sensory approach which is relevant to professionals of all disciplines. His presentation at this event is geared toward both professionals and parents who are seeking to better understand how a sensory-based approach can improve emotional regulation and social skills among children with autism.
