Auricular Neuromodulation offers great potential to address special needs in education settings, especially as under-funded schools struggle with a rising inability to address the behavioral health needs of children.

Anna Venables has developed Microsystems Therapies and Training (MTAT), which is deeply grounded in her professional background as a mental health professional, and her passion for addressing special needs in education. Her MTAT Connecting Protocol is arguably one of the most accessible bridges between polyvagal-informed concepts and auricular neuromodulation.
