Description

Of all the skills children need to grow into healthy and happy adults, selfregulation is among the most important. And the evidence is clear - it begins in early childhood.

In your work with young children, you have a powerful and unique opportunity to build adaptive behaviors, foster healthy relationships, and support mental health and emotional well-being in the next generation.

You can be the one to change the trajectory of a child’s life.

This is your chance to learn from an expert in social-emotional development, Dr. Karen Hyche OTR/L, as she teaches you cutting-edge evidence-based strategies for successful self-regulation in children birth to 5 years.

You will learn much-needed interventions for infants and young children who have sensory processing disorders, autism spectrum disorder, development delays, behaviour concerns, speech and language delays, and early childhood trauma to improve social-emotional development and self-regulation skills.

This course is for all professionals who address self-regulation in young children, including mental health professionals, rehab professionals, and early childhood educators. Discover treatment strategies that really work in homes, daycares, schools, and clinics, including:

  • Techniques to support healthy sleep, eating, and transitioning behaviours
  • Sensory strategies to support emotional regulation
  • Age-appropriate mindfulness, CBT strategies, co-regulation and more!
  • Trauma-informed SEL, attachment-based, sensorimotor, and cognitive interventions
  • Routines-based intervention to make carry-over simple and stress-free for families
