TRE® for Kids and the Kid in All of Us - Live Webinar
2020-09-24 10:00 - 17:00 (America/Chicago) | Online – Live Webinar
TRE can be a valuable treatment when working with children who experience stress and developmental trauma. While the principles of TRE remain consistent, the individual approach can look quite different. In order to successfully implement TRE with children, providers need to gain a depth of understanding of when, why, and how to alter the protocol to keep children safe and regulated when releasing defensive patterning. Participants will explore the development of the neurobiological aspects of the tremor mechanism, self-regulation (arousal and affect regulation), and the innate play action systems. Come ready to release stress through playful interactions.

Posture & Movement: How Does Sensory Integration Fit In? - Live Webinar w/ Recording
2020-09-23 | Online – Live Webinar
Course Preview: Watch to learn more about the NDT clinical problem-solving process
Recording Access Available!
This webinar was designed to introduce clinicians to the Neurodevelopmental Treatment (NDT) problem-solving process, therapeutic handling, and clinical decision-making process when treating children that display motor and sensory problems within a treatment session. Improving the clinician’s perception regarding the interrelation between the sensory systems, neuromuscular systems, and posture and movement (multi-system) will be emphasized.
Through video demonstration the participant will recognize multi/single-system integrities and impairments related to functional activities and participation. Identification of neuromuscular and sensory system impairments will be highlighted, improving the clinician’s observational skills to determine treatment strategies related to the child’s functional outcome. NDT handling strategies addressing both the sensory and neuromuscular impairments simultaneously will be demonstrated via video.
Discussion of the clinical decision-making process during a single session will allow the participant to appreciate and acknowledge an integrated approach to children with sensorimotor dysfunction.
Take an additional discount of $15 per participant for groups of 3 or more individuals enrolling simultaneously under the same web-order.

Creating Effective Performance, Precision and Power in Sensory Diets - Live Webinar with Recording
2020-08-07
Recording Access Available!
While it appears deceptively simple, designing sensory diets is not merely following a list of predetermined activities. Creating effective and precise sensory diets requires individualized clinical reasoning based upon an understanding of the unique contributions of the sensory systems, the defensive-orienting continuum, sensory modulation, and arousal regulation.
Join Julia Wilbarger and Sheila Frick as they share their unique perspectives on creating and implementing sensory diets from a neurodevelopmental and sensorimotor perspective. Course content will be applicable across practice settings to support individuals of all ages who experience difficulties with sensory processing limiting occupational participation and well-being. This practical, interactive course will immediately support and reinforce successful application of these concepts in clinical practice and home environments.

Finding Safety and Stability: A Trauma-Informed Sensory Motor Approach - Live Webinar
2020-06-26 | Online – Live Webinar
Take an Inside Look at the Course to See the Meaning Behind the Terminology “Safety” and “Stability”.

Therapists and other professionals who work with individuals with sensory and developmental disorders (e.g. autism spectrum, attention deficit, learning disabilities) often encounter clients with difficulties related to developmental trauma. Traumatic events may be overt, such as early loss of a primary caregiver; sexual, physical or emotional abuse; or domestic, community and school violence. Trauma may also be innocent, such as early hospitalization and necessary lifesaving medical procedures in the neonatal intensive care unit. Exposure to adverse life experiences has been shown to increase the likelihood of social, emotional and developmental delays. Furthermore, children with developmental delays have a higher risk of being subjected to experiences involving physical, emotional and sexual abuse.
There is a growing understanding, and accompanying clinical practice that addresses the connection between sensory processing dysfunction and trauma. When an individual cannot adequately process sensory information or traumatic experiences, the body’s natural defense mechanisms become heightened, further impacting sensory processing disorder.
This live, one-day, online course will explore the connections between trauma, sensory processing and sensory integrative difficulties. Participants will learn how sound and movement are critical in the development of body based, perceptual motor, and social emotional foundations for feeling safe in the world and in relationship to another. Treatment labs will explore the basics of auditory and vestibular/somatosensory processing, and their relationship to arousal, attachment, self-regulation, and learning. Video and case presentations will bring key concepts and treatment strategies to life in this theoretically-based, yet practical course.
Registration includes the Therapy Ball Trio (S&H fees may apply^).

Posture & Movement: How Does Sensory Integration Fit In? - Live Webinar w/ Recording
2020-05-28 | Online – Live Webinar
Recording Access Available!
This webinar was designed to introduce clinicians to the Neurodevelopmental Treatment (NDT) problem-solving process, therapeutic handling, and clinical decision-making process when treating children that display motor and sensory problems within a treatment session. Improving the clinician’s perception regarding the interrelation between the sensory systems, neuromuscular systems, and posture and movement (multi-system) will be emphasized.
Through video demonstration the participant will recognize multi/single-system integrities and impairments related to functional activities and participation. Identification of neuromuscular and sensory system impairments will be highlighted, improving the clinician’s observational skills to determine treatment strategies related to the child’s functional outcome. NDT handling strategies addressing both the sensory and neuromuscular impairments simultaneously will be demonstrated via video.
Discussion of the clinical decision-making process during a single session will allow the participant to appreciate and acknowledge an integrated approach to children with sensorimotor dysfunction.

Therapy Ball Trio included with course
There is a growing understanding, and accompanying clinical practice that addresses the connection between sensory processing dysfunction and trauma. When an individual cannot adequately process sensory information or traumatic experiences, the body’s natural defense mechanisms become heightened, further impacting sensory processing disorder.
This two-day, hands-on course will explore, from a trauma-informed perspective, the connections between sensory processing and sensory integrative difficulties. We will also provide a brief introduction to the tension reducing technique, known as TRE®, as a means of demonstrating how the body retains stress in core muscular tension patterns.

Therapeutic Listening Practical Applications for Children with ASD & Complex Needs - London
2020-02-10 | Hamilton House, Mabledon Place, London, WC1H 9BD, United Kingdom
This is a new course designed for therapists who have an understanding of Therapeutic Listening® and a variety of its music libraries. At times, therapists can struggle with the practical application of Therapeutic Listening with children with Autism spectrum disorders, severe learning difficulties and/or challenging behaviors due to the range of complexities posed by this complex client group. This course will discuss sensory and regulation differences present in children with ASD and pose a framework for embedding therapy using Therapeutic Listening within a special school environment. We’ll explore ways to train staff; monitor outcomes and understand the differences in using Therapeutic Listening with this client group. This course will also deal with some of the challenges regularly faced by therapists including:

Assessment where standardized methods are not possible
Barriers to intervention – hard headphones, managing equipment, length of listening time
Choosing and using music from all aspects of the Therapeutic Listening libraries
Using appropriate postural, respiratory and sensory activities to support programs
Monitoring effectiveness

Evidence-based practice, case studies, videos and recorded discussions with parents, teachers and other therapists will be used to support learning.

2020-02-08 - 2020-02-09 | Online – Live Webinar
Book included with course
Without clear information coming from the vestibular system, sights and sounds in the environment do not make sense – they are only isolated pieces of information disconnected from each other and from the meaningful whole. It is integration of sensory information that holds the key for finding meaning in the world. This two-day course will explore the connections of the vestibular-visual-auditory triad and their subsequent impact on function. Additionally, this course will provide participants with a precise template for intervention strategies, including administration of Astronaut Training.
Who Should Attend:
Occupational therapists, speech/language pathologists, physical therapists, educators, human services professionals, and other medical professionals. Graduating students or graduate students of the aforementioned fields are also welcome.
Certification:
Participants will receive a certification in the Astronaut Training Protocol. This course provides participants with the necessary background information to immediately begin incorporating Astronaut Training into their programs.
