Sought after occupational therapist, Dr. Varleisha Gibbs PhD, OTR/L guides you on a journey. Dr. Gibbs walks you through the foundations for selecting appropriate interventions for children displaying challenging behaviors such as hyperactivity, aggressiveness, self-stimulatory, and inattentiveness amongst other concerns.
With current research advances in neurology, we’ll revisit the evidence for best practice and enhance intervention techniques for addressing challenges such as:
This session covers the nine neurological senses, neuronal oscillations, and the autonomic neuronal plexuses to better understand the symptomatology. Specific focus will be given to the various central nervous system plexuses and the role of the Vagus nerve. Active learning strategies will include video neuroanatomical review and case examples.
You will be able to describe the various neurological structures related to the nine senses, describe neuronal oscillations and their connection to function, relate current research on the neuronal plexuses to function and dysfunction of individuals with Complex Trauma Disorder, Autism, ADHD, and related disorders.
Time is devoted to analyzing intervention planning and goal writing for case examples of children displaying challenging social, eating, and sleeping behaviors.
