Speakers from across a variety of disciplines delve into the interplay of sensory processing and sensory motor experience with mental health domains and meaningful participation. This knowledge will transform your clinical practice by reframing challenging behaviors, supporting improved function and maximizing experiences of success for your clients and their families.
Explore the crucial role sensory processing/sensory motor experience plays in shaping human development. We will examine the impact of sensation on ‘sense of self’ and self-agency. An expanded focus includes how the ‘self’ interacts within the external environment. Discover how both positively affect the individual’s relationships within the family and the community, as well as positively grow the individual’s physical capacities to interact in the world.
