We understand our world through our senses. Our ability to regulate our bodies and minds allows us to learn. We learn and grow best when in nurturing relationships. The interactions of these 3 foundational domains – sensory processing, regulation, and relationship – impacts every aspect of our development and participation throughout the lifespan. Additionally, the sensory domain has been identified as a diagnostic criteria or condition characteristic for several neurodivergent conditions (e.g. Autism, ADHD, SPD, Schizophrenia). This course introduces the domains of sensory processing, regulation, and relationships and their neuro-biological, behavioral, and functional intersections with one another that can support or derail function. This course supports multi-discipline participant integration of the information through guided discussions and open format questioning.
