Description

Leaving nothing to the abstract, “75 Quick, ‘On-The-Spot’ Techniques for Children and Adolescents with Emotional and Behavioral Problems” will guide you through focused, clear and successful methods for treating children. Every professional who seeks to fill their toolbox with tested methods will leave this seminar with a wealth of fresh ideas and rejuvenated spirits.

With nearly 25 years of clinical experience and a background in improvisational comedy, Dr. Steve is a strong proponent of “Edu-tainment.” Namely, he uses charm, wit and humor to enhance your seminar experience, thus improving the retention and utilization of the specific skills covered. We change the world when we touch a child’s life!

"Took Online-Difficult to hear questions from the audience. Overall-GREAT!"

Alexandra K

"Dr Olivas is clearly knowledgeable. There was a lot of digressing and the actual intervention portion was very rushed. I don't feel I have much to take away from this course and apply to OT practice with my behaviorally challenging patients. "
