About
Tori Sheppard
Tori Sheppard has significant qualifications in neurodevelopment and education. Her postgraduate training includes an INPP Licentiate qualification from the Institute for Neuro-Physiological Psychology (INPP) in Chester, England, as well as Tomatis Practitioner (Level 2) certification. She is a qualified Johansen IAS Practitioner and an internationally accredited leader in the Ronnie Gardiner Method. She is a Summa Cum Laude graduate with a Bachelor of Science in Early Childhood Education from Samford University. This honours degree enabled her to train as a teacher with an emphasis on readiness for learning. During her previous career as a musician and working in the faith and charity sector, she also earned a Cambridge CELTA, driven by a desire to teach refugees/children who do not have English as their first language. She is a member of the Developmental Practitioners Association. An avid learner, Tori is guided by research and advances in neurodevelopmental education and therapy and continues to pursue further professional study.

As a guest on the Eden Equips podcast (above), Tori Sheppard answers the question "What is Neurodevelopmental Therapy?" and talks about the work of Map & Compass and some of the science and ethos behind the work.
