One Day Workshop, Presented by international speaker Gen Jereb, Occupational Therapist A Sensory Processing Approach to Challenges associated with Autism, ADHD, Learning & Behavioural Disorders.
This presentation is designed for therapists, teachers, parents, caregivers and other professionals who are interested in understanding the fundamentals of sensory processing and its impact on attention, behaviour, social engagement, creative thinking, purpose driven play and learning. Genevieve Jereb offers practical and powerful tools to help support children to “learn and thrive from the inside out.” Participants will be able to add beneficial experiences to the sensory diets of the children they care for. Respiration and its effects on behaviour, learning and attention will be presented along with practical tools to support the breath at home, in the classroom or in the social environment. A relationship based approach to interacting with your children to support problem solving, motor planning, creative thinking, building bridges between ideas and social connectiveness will also be presented. Ms. Jereb will address how sensory processing difficulties affect many children, both with and without the diagnoses of Autism Spectrum Disorders, Aspergers Syndrome, ADHD, ADD, learning challenges and other developmental and neurological challenges. Sensory processing difficulties in children, both recognized and undetected, can significantly impact social and emotional relationships, behaviour, attention and learning in the classroom, home and clinic.
