Building on the success of her son Deane-Paul and other children with disabilities Cathy Anderson developed a vision of a full-time comprehensive therapy center.

Cathy and her associates Jamie and Wayne LaMunyon will chronicle Deane-Paul's emergence from a child who would not speak or interact with people to a bright enthusiastic kid.

We will also explore the vision of D.A.T.A. (Dolphin Assisted Therapy Association, Inc.)

The Therapy Center, envisioned by Cathy Anderson, will expand from the focal point of Dolphin-Child interaction to provide an atmosphere and the tools for healing and learning for the entire family.

Proposed modalities will include: a computer lab, multimedia center, a Montessori school. and arts & crafts integrated with art therapy.

The professional staff will also include speech therapist, Physical therapists, Occupations therapy and family counselors,

The modalities will remain dynamic to meet the needs of the clients' base.

The learning Center will also provide an opportunity for various non-invasive research projects.

The location of the center will be in Enid, Oklahoma providing easy access from anywhere in the United States and the rest of the world.
