Early Intervention for Autism:
Assessment & Treatment Strategies for Birth to 5
Feel confident you can recognize early and subtle signs of autism that are often missed in young children during this 6-hour session.
It’s difficult to tell if a child has the behavioral indicators of autism at such a young age, but what if you could catch them before they become deeply ingrained in a child’s neurological system?

Autism Spectrum Meltdowns
Effective Interventions for Sensory, Executive Function and Social-Emotional Communication
This 6-hour session gives you a unique understanding of meltdowns and how to develop a crisis intervention plan from an insider's perspective.
Minor changes can trigger strong reactions in your client's life, and when they have a meltdown, everything you do can either help calm them or make it worse.

The Connection Between Autism and Vision (CPD Video)
Hands-on Demonstrations of Therapeutic Techniques
A 1-hour session to give you a better understanding of the how the visual system affects clients with ASD and therapeutic activities to intervene.
The vision system isn't usually one of the key areas you look at when treating Autism Spectrum Disorders, but often times, the clients you're seeing are experiencing visual dysfunction, affecting coordination, awareness, fixation, vestibular function and much more. Autistic people often use visual information inefficiently and have problems coordinating their central and peripheral (ambient) vision.
This can also be true, to a lesser extent, of those who have Sensory Processing Disorder and ADHD. Through hands-on demonstrations you will learn therapeutic techniques to help improve central and peripheral vision coordination for better outcomes in clients with Autism Spectrum Disorder. This bonus session will dive into evidence-based techniques to improve central and peripheral vision coordination to increase your client's ability to process and respond effectively.
