Marianela Datti, Occupational Therapist & Nutritional Therapist specialised in Autism and Neurodevelopment
My mission is to help every child and family reach their full potential by identifying and addressing the root causes of their challenges. Through expert guidance and personalised support, I help overcome obstacles, build confidence and resilience, and create lasting, positive change—so children and families can experience greater ease, connection, and joy in everyday life.
I am an Occupational Therapist and Nutritional Therapist with over 23 years of experience supporting children, teenagers, and families through a truly integrative approach that combines neuroscience, therapeutic strategies, nutritional and lifestyle recommendations.
I specialise in Autism, ADHD, Dyspraxia, PANDAS/ PANS and a wide range of neurodevelopmental challenges. I am certified in Sensory Integration (USC-USA), DIR Floortime, and LINCA. My work goes beyond traditional occupational therapy—I collaborate with medical professionals to explore and address the underlying biological and nutritional factors that influence each child’s development.
I’m known for connecting the dots others may miss, translating complex information into clear, practical strategies that create meaningful change. My approach is evidence-based, compassionate, and highly individualised—because no two children are the same.
My mission is simple: to help every child and teenager build confidence, develop independence, and experience greater ease, health, and joy in everyday life—while empowering families with the knowledge and support they need to feel confident every step of the way.
ABOUT ME
OUR SERVICES
Through a compassionate, evidence-based, and child-centred approach, Marianela provides specialised online consultations for families worldwide — helping parents better understand their child beyond behaviours, symptoms, or diagnosis.
Consultations are designed to support children and teenagers experiencing challenges with:
1- Sensory processing and emotional regulation
2- Attention, focus, and executive functioning
3- Anxiety and behavioural challenges
4- Motor coordination, handwriting, and daily living skills
5- School participation and learning support
6- Social participation, communication, and friendships
7- Sleep, routines, and self-regulation
8- Nutrition, gut health, and healthy lifestyle habits
Appointments may include parent consultation, clinical observation, therapeutic guidance, personalised recommendations, and practical strategies to support progress at home, school, and in the community.
Online consultations may help families who:
Want to better understand their child’s behaviours and emotional responses
Are seeking practical strategies to support regulation, participation, and wellbeing
Need guidance around sensory needs, attention, learning, or daily functioning
Would benefit from ongoing support and monitoring over time
Want to improve confidence, independence, school participation, and quality of life
The goal is to help children feel more regulated, connected, confident, and successful in everyday life through respectful, integrative, and evidence-based care.
International online consultations available for families and professionals worldwide.
Clinical supervision and professional guidance also available.
We help children and teenagers not just cope—but truly thrive at home, at school, and in everyday life. Our unique integrative approach brings together therapy, nutrition, and neuroscience to look beyond surface behaviours and understand what’s really driving your child’s challenges.
Rather than quick fixes, we focus on uncovering the root causes and creating personalised, practical strategies that lead to real, lasting change. The result? Children who feel more regulated, confident, and able to engage with the world around them—and families who feel supported, informed, and empowered.
With the right guidance, every child can build resilience, develop meaningful connections, and experience greater ease and joy in daily life—and we’re here to help you make that happen.
