In a Nutshell what we do at The Alison Lawson Centre Sunshine Coast
There are 6 main factors we have found that can contribute to the learning difficulties associated with Dyslexia (Visual) and other Specific Learning Difficulties. 1. Hereditary- Dyslexia can be inherited, passed down through the genes. This can lead to... 2. Physiological Conditions- mainly the eye's functionality and the resultant processing ability of the brain are affected, hindering the ability to process learning and this can lead to... 3. Learning Difficulties- a real struggle exists to learn and retain the building blocks of reading and writing, which can lead to ... 4. Negative Belief Systems- negative mindsets such as 'I can 't do it!", " I am dumb" which can lead to... 5. Emotional responses - frustration, anxiety, withdrawal, anti-social behaviour which can lead to.. 6. Wounding of the Human Spirit- that part of us that is the essence of our being which in combination with our soul (mind, will and emotions) and our bodies, make up a unique human being. Wounding, in some cases, can lead to hopelessness and despair, a surrendering of looking forward to achievement and success, and can result in a lack of confidence, self esteem and joy. The Alison Lawson techniques and technologies aim to treat the physiological conditions, facilitate easier learning, input new positive belief systems which influence the emotional responses, so that they can regain their hope of achievement and success, restoring confidence and joy!

Improved reading, writing, spelling. More confident with all the above. Memory improved immensely. No more words jumping around when reading” “Would you recommend the Alison Lawson treatment to others?” “Absolutely! Tiannah has progressed more during her treatment than the past 2 1/2 years at school.” Jacinta, mother of Tiannah, 7 years old “Today marks the end of a very big ten weeks as my daughter successfully completed the program with Tracey at The Alison Lawson Centre. Before we began my daughter was struggling. She found everything ‘hard’ at school. Headaches, reversing every second number, reversing letters and losing her place reading. She would come home frustrated with herself getting 2/10 in her spelling test. Now, after 10 weeks she says she finds school ‘easy’. She hasn’t had headaches and her writing has improved. Although she still reverses numbers occasionally, she has written 1-1000 confidently which was IMPOSSIBLE when we started. Her reading is fluent and she doesn’t lose her place. Her spelling is fantastic and she comes home telling me she got them all right! I can’t recommend this program enough to anyone with a child (or yourself) that struggles with this stuff. It’s been an enormous amount of work but worth every minute. Thank you Tracey from the ALC for your gentle and caring nature, your patience, passion and clear direction. xx" Rosie, mother of Lillian, 7 "We ask ourselves, “Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? We are all meant to shine...” Marianne Williamson "Advances in Genetics Should Make Learning Easier, According to Professor."
