Stefanie Bodison is a graduate of the University of Southern California and has been specializing in sensorimotor and neurodevelopmental intervention techniques with children for over 20 years. The populations with which she has particular interests include children with autism, developmental dyspraxia, cerebral palsy, developmental coordination disorder and learning disabilities, and their families. Dr. Bodison's current research focuses on the use of multimodal imaging techniques (MRI, fMRI and DTI) to investigate the neural mechanisms of sensorimotor integration in children with a variety of neurodevelopmental conditions.

Dr. Bodison currently holds a KL2 Mentored Career Development Award from the Southern California Clinical and Translational Science Institute at the University of Southern California (NIH/NCRR/NCATS #KL2TR000131). From 2011 to 2013, she was a postdoctoral fellow in Training in Rehabilitation Efficacy and Effectiveness Trials, a NIH-funded T32 Postdoctoral Training Program at the Division of Occupational Science and Therapy at the University of Southern California (1T32 HD64578-1A1).

Dr. Bodison specializes in treating children with feeding and oral-motor difficulties, as well as combining sensory integration and Neuro-Developmental Treatment™ techniques to meet the daily living challenges of children with autism, learning disabilities, cerebral palsy, sensory integration dysfunction and neuromotor disorders. She has lectured on sensory integration and feeding, eating and swallowing issues in children throughout the United States and internationally, and regularly teaches pediatrics within the USC Division of Occupational Science and Occupational Therapy.
