Transdisciplinary Team: expert assessment & treatment of Neurodevelopmental Disorders & Learning Difficulties, all ages.

About us

Founded by Developmental Behavioral Pediatrician Dr. Ann Alexander, and currently owned and operated by Dr. Tim Conway, The Morris Center has over 27 years of experience – including helping conduct and publish NIH funded research proving the efficacy of portions of The Morris Center’s treatment program. The Morris Center’s research and clinical data repeatedly support the success of the intensive, transdisciplinary treatment model. Equally important, the treatment outcomes are robust and typically long-term with little to no long-term follow-up required. The Morris Center is an all-inclusive neurodevelopmental treatment and assessment center. We help improve skills of children and adults who have difficulty with school or job success, e.g. poor reading, spelling, comprehension, writing, speech, math, sensory processing attention, behavior or social skills. Uniquely, The Morris Center uses a transdisciplinary team of caring professionals, individually tailored assessment and treatment, and a scientifically proven treatment program. This program makes long-term improvements of weak skills that may cause academic or job difficulties. The Morris Center’s cutting-edge assessment model is transdisciplinary, client specific and aims to guide treatment planning. Our transdisciplinary assessment and treatment team includes professionals in child psychiatry, clinical psychology, neuropsychology, nurse practitioner, occupational therapy, special education, and speech-language pathology. These professionals design the assessment to identify an individual’s specific profile of strengths and weaknesses. Identifying clients’ strengths and weaknesses can uncover likely causes of their learning difficulties, poor academic performance or limited job success. Similarly, this profile guides The Morris Center’s selected treatment program. The primary aim of the treatment program is to improve a client’s weaknesses and improve academic or work performance. Thus, treatment is tailored

    Join us today at NOON, 12PM ET, on the Dyslexia Success Stories! podcast as we explore the Betzmer family's inspiring journey through the challenges of dyslexia, dysgraphia, ADHD, and more. From early signs of struggle in preschool to years of trial and error with interventions, their story is one of determination, resilience, and eventual triumph with the NOW! Programs®. Discover how the Betzmers navigated a landscape of public school programs, specialized interventions, and homeschooling, all while advocating tirelessly for their daughter. Despite setbacks and so many ineffective solutions, they found hope and life-changing results with the evidence-based NOW! Programs® and Sensory Integration Occupational Therapy at The Morris Center. Many parents are surprised to find out that some aspects of reading and spelling will more likely be fully developed IF their child completes a course of specialized Sensory Integration OT in an intensive and highly structured, developmental series of training - then visual memory of sight words are more likely to improve and visual-memory/visual-motor skills are more likely to empower spelling of irregular words. Join us to learn more about the Sensory Pyramid connection to empowering "orthographic memory" - needed for better reading and spelling of sight words, after phonological awareness has been fully empowered, too. We'll share the Sensory Pyramid diagram to help explain this developmental system that can only be fully empowered by expertly trained OT's who are Sensory Integration certified and mentored by senior OTs too. We’ll dive into: The emotional and academic toll of delayed progress and misdiagnoses. The transformational impact of gaining three years of reading in just several months of NOW! Foundations for Speech, Language, Reading and Spelling® The powerful breakthroughs made possible through The Morris Center clinics' sensory integration trained and highly skilled occupational therapist, empowering visual perception, visual memory, visual recognition (components lumped into the term Orthographic Memory), fine motor skills, visual + fine motor skills and other related sensory-motor regulation & modulation challenges. Hear firsthand how the Betzmer family's journey has not only changed their daughter’s academic trajectory, but also restored her confidence, opened doors for college, and reignited her love for learning. Journey's like this help families know to expect more and find more empowering services, so their child can truly unlock their full learning potential and pursue their own academic, interpersonal and occupational goals. Whether you’re a parent, teacher, or someone seeking to understand the complexities of learning challenges, like dyslexia, dysgraphia, sensory processing disorder and more, this episode is filled with insights, encouragement, and revelations about just how much we can empower new strengths, skills and abilities.

    Join Us Tomorrow for an Inspiring Episode with Parrish and Eshanne! What happens when a homeschooling family takes on the challenges of neurodivergence head-on? This week, we welcome Eshanne and her daughter, Parrish, to the Dyslexia Success Stories! podcast to share what Eshanne calls "their miraculous journey" of understanding, supporting, advocating and then empowering Parrish beyond the struggles of Dyslexia and other learning difficulties. Parrish, a bright and creative homeschooled student, struggled with reading, spelling and comprehension in a way that left her parents perplexed. Despite her obvious intelligence, it seemed impossible for Parrish to retain letters, words, concepts, and ideas—often requiring hundreds of repeat learning experiences, as if she had not been taught or learned these items before, but she had. For her parents, this was both maddening and heartbreaking until they understood that Parrish's difficulties were common symptoms of dyslexia. Parrish’s determination and her family’s commitment to her education ultimately brought them to the NOW! Programs®, where their lives were transformed. In just one year, Parrish has gone from a kindergarten reading level to reading at a 12th-grade level—an achievement her family calls nothing short of “miraculous!” But this transformation is more than just academic. It's a testament to the power of evidence-based intervention and the strength of a family committed to embracing neurodiversity and not settling for the typical slow, minimal or even no progress outcomes that happen with most dyslexia intervention programs. Were these poor outcomes mainly due to dyslexia or more due to so many untested, unproven and ineffective Dyslexia treatment programs being allowed to be sold to families? As a homeschooling family blending Waldorf, unschooling, and traditional models, Eshanne and her husband have had a front-row seat to their children’s struggles and successes. They’ll share how understanding Parrish’s dyslexia and their son’s ADHD not only shaped their approach to education, but also helped them better understand their own childhood experiences with neurodivergence. What is it like to witness such a profound shift in a child’s abilities and confidence? How does homeschooling provide unique opportunities to address developmental needs? And what can neuroscience teach us about dyslexia, retention challenges, empowerment and how is it possible for v many more people with Dyslexia to also experience “miraculous” improvements? Tune in tomorrow as Dr. Tim Conway joins the conversation to provide expert insights and celebrate Parrish’s incredible progress.

    Join us this Friday at 12 PM Eastern Time for an inspiring episode of the Dyslexia Success Stories! podcast featuring Marcus Stadlmueller—Florida State University graduate, opera singer, voice actor, and community advocate. Diagnosed with ADHD at a young age, Marcus thrived in school until a car accident at age 9 created new challenges. How did Marcus face these obstacles? How did he overcome the struggles of dyslexia, a language disorder, and sensory processing difficulties? At age 13, Marcus attended The Morris Center (TMC), where he received evidence-based interventions to empower his reading, spelling, comprehension, math, sensory motor, visual-perceptual, visual-motor, attention, focus, and self-regulation skills. Alternating between language-based programs and occupational therapy, Marcus gained the tools and confidence to transform his academic and personal life. What did Marcus take away from his time at TMC, and how did it help him rediscover his strengths and continue his journey as a musician? Marcus’s musical talents have always been his “heart and soul.” From singing in a church choir at age 3 to performing with symphony orchestras and bands, Marcus’s love for music has shaped his path. Today, Marcus channels his passion for storytelling and performance into a career as a voice actor and narrator, using his voice to inspire and connect with others. How has Marcus turned challenges into strengths? How does he continue to pursue his dreams with resilience and creativity? Tune in tomorrow at 12 PM Eastern Time to hear Marcus’s powerful and inspiring story. Don’t miss this episode!
