This virtual summit is designed to equip healthcare and education professionals with the knowledge and skills to better support neurodivergent individuals and their families. Our focus is on empowering caregivers to be neurodiversity-affirming, sensory-informed, trauma-informed, and to promote the overall well-being and actualization of their neurodivergent loved ones. Don't miss this opportunity to enhance your professional practice and join a dedicated community committed to making a meaningful difference in the lives of those affected by sensory challenges.
Weekly on Thursdays | November 7-21, 2024 | 9:00 AM - 12:00 PM Mountain Time
During this online event, we will equip professionals with a range of valuable tools and strategies to cultivate sensory health behaviors in the families they support and coach. You'll gain essential health literacy tools, learn effective communication techniques to establish relatability, acquire coaching strategies to empower caregivers and explore caregiver education techniques.
You will leave feeling empowered and ready to invite caregivers into the therapy gym, actively involve clients and caregivers in the goal-setting process, and utilize psychoeducational and occupational health-focused strategies. Gain the ability to reframe our cultural hyperfocus on children's "behaviors" and develop a deeper understanding of sensory integration and processing differences and the biopsychosocioecological model of disability. You'll be equipped with the knowledge and skills to create a more inclusive and effective therapeutic environment for your clients and their families.
Don't miss this opportunity to expand your knowledge, refine your skills, and join a dedicated community committed to cultivating sensory intelligence for the benefit of individuals and families. Together, we can make a meaningful difference in the lives of those affected by sensory challenges.
