Neurodiversity Trainings

  • Reframing Behaviors touches on the many factors that impact behavior: sensory processing, trauma, environment, activity, expectations, and personal needs. We will discuss co-regulation, developing self-awareness, and implementing strategies for problem-solving behaviors. Learn how to optimally engage in the therapeutic use of self and co-regulation, as these are the foundations for connecting with a child.

    This training runs 8-10 hours and can be condensed by request and/or offered in multiple sessions.

  • Understanding Sensory Processing and Regulation will provide a basic understanding of sensory processing and other personal factors that impact our behavior and regulation. You will also learn simple strategies to support connection, regulation, and participation.

  • Regulation Stations starts with a discussion of various factors that impact one’s regulation. We will explain how to use resources as you explore each station, which feature a variety of tools and strategies for hands-on learning.

  • 4 Areas to Support Connection & Regulation examines four key areas where we can support, modify, and adapt, allowing for inclusion in our chosen activities.

    As a group, we will tap into different supports and strategies that have worked for ourselves and/or our children in each of these categories. We will then apply this framework to approaching professionals in various environments.

  • Sensory Tools from Common Household Items offers a basic understanding of sensory processing, interoception, and regulation. We will provide education on various sensory tools, explore hands-on stations, and make our own sensory tools.
