​Behavior is the fruit, not the root.
Children’s participation, learning, and behavior emerge from deeper body-based systems. When we focus only on what is visible, we miss the foundation that supports it.
​
From Roots to Fruit, The Integrated Interoception Tree Model™ provides a clear, visual framework to understand how sensory systems, interoception, and lived experience work together to support regulation, executive function, and participation.
​
This toolkit helps you move from understanding to action.
✔ Identify patterns of access
✔ Understand readiness and interoception
✔ Translate assessment into intervention
✔ Develop measurable, participation-based goals
✔ Implement Tier 1–3 supports across environments
✔ Support regulation, executive function, and communication
