This 7.5 hour live online workshop will provide an integrated theoretical connection about the neurological interplay between attachment, developmental trauma and sensory processing issues. Participants will develop an introductory understanding of the use of relational attunement as a regulatory influence that supports and stabilizes the arousal and sensory processing systems. This workshop uniquely blends the integration of psychotherapeutic skills with sensory processing intervention. Specifically adapted to supporting Occupational Therapists in Ireland, participants will learn how to put these two distinct therapeutic approaches together as a mechanism for the development of self-regulation and mental health function. Learning will be facilitated primarily through lecture and storytelling, with some group reflection and problem-solving in addition.
