SUMMARY:Therapeutic Kinesiology Taping for Children With Neurological Impairments - Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Children with neurological impairments benefit from improved sensory perceptive information coming into their nervous system. Therapeutic kinesiology taping can facilitate muscle activity\, inhibit abnormal muscle activity\, assist to reposition joints\, support postural alignment\, and improve proprioception for better functional outcomes. some of the benefits of therapeutic kinesiology taping include providing stability of joints while allowing full range of motion\, unloading tissue via decompression for improved sliding of myofascial layers and providing enhanced motor control through a novel stimulus during movement for improved body awareness. Evidence-based research suggests that clinicians who incorporate kinesiology taping into their treatment plan note improvement in the postural control and functional activities with both\, upper and lower limbs\, and increase in functional independency. \nParticipants of this course will learn to implement kinesiology taping for the most common problems in the pediatric patient with neuromotor disorders such as: truncal hypotonia\, shoulder girdle instability\, and extremity dysfunction. Participants will leave with practical and effective kinesiology taping skills they can integrate into their toolbox the next day to improve therapeutic outcomes. \nHighlights\n\nTherapeutic kinesiology taping interventions for common dysfunctions in the neurological pediatric patient\, such as truncal hypotonia\, shoulder girdle instability\, and extremity dysfunction\nEffective application and precautions of kinesiology taping to parents and caregivers to include this modality in a home program\nCase study practice to gain the indications and protocols for applying handling and therapeutic taping interventions

SUMMARY:Self-Regulation Interventions for Children & Adolescents: Reduce Frustration\, Emotional Outbursts & Oppositional Behaviors - Live Webcast
DESCRIPTION:This seminar will help you to better intervene with the challenging child—the one who won’t sit still; doesn’t follow directions; often throws tantrums; or has difficulty waiting for their turn. They may “hit first and ask questions later”. They react impulsively and have difficulty expressing what they need or what is frustrating them. We know this child is intelligent\, caring and kind\, but their behavior doesn’t reflect these positive qualities. These are the children who confuse and frustrate parents and who overwhelm teachers and peers. They struggle to meet basic expectations and are unable to succeed in school\, with peers and at home. \nJoin clinical psychologist Dr. Ehlert and learn to effectively intervene with the emotional and behavioral dysregulation of children with High-Functioning Autism\, ADHD\, Learning Disabilities and Sensory Processing Disorders. Through hands-on activities and dynamic discussion\, you will learn techniques\, behavioral strategies\, problem-solving strategies and brain training exercises to: \n\nAddress the sensory\, language and executive functioning processing deficits that trigger them\nIncrease their self-control\, social success\, emotional control and task completion\nTeach flexibility\, tolerance\, thinking it through and decision-making\nReduce the frequency and duration of their tantrums and emotional outbursts\n\nWalk away with proven emotional\, behavioral and processing strategies that lead to social and academic success!

SUMMARY:The Sensory and Sleep Connection - Webinar
DESCRIPTION:The American Academy of Pediatrics (2020) estimates 25-50% of all children and 40% of adolescents are affected by sleep problems. Since so many children suffer from sleep issues\, it is essential for all healthcare providers to recognizethat sleep problems in children: can mimic symptoms of ADHD; cause depression and anxiety; may be linked to depressed immune responses; and in recent studies show a link to increased risk of diabetes\, heart disease\, and obesity (Sleep Foundation\, 2021). Adolescents who get an inadequate amount of sleep struggle more academically and have a higher incidence of mental health problems (Colrain &Baker\, 2011). Daytime and evening activities also improve orinterfere with sleep quality. Using active learning strategies\, participants will be able to provide caregiver education andwill learn evidence-based sleep routine and hygiene recommendations and strategies to support improved sleep-in pediatric clients. Promoting improved sleep-in pediatric clients improves family relationships and children’s success engaging in other important daily occupations. \nHighlights\n\nEvidence-based strategies to support improved sleep\nImplementing balanced screen/activity time\, routines\, and better sleep hygiene that promotes immediate change in sleeping patterns\nAddressing the negative impacts of inadequate sleep inthe pediatric population through the latest evidence\, treatment strategies\, and case studies

SUMMARY:Social Anxiety and Perfectionism: Clinical Tools to Let Go of Unrealistic Standards and Build Real Connections - Live Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Your clients with perfectionism are in a no-win situation\, and it can feel like you’re stuck there with them. \nWhen perfectionism exacerbates social anxiety\, your clients struggle to stand up for themselves – to assert their needs in high-stakes situations – and seek assistance from others. Their lives are one missed opportunity after another. \nWhen your clients fail to meet their own unachievable standards\, they maintain that being hard on themselves is necessary for success – despite your attempts to soften their self-criticism and educate them on how it impairs performance. \nWhen you highlight their victories\, they reset the bar and insist that the standards weren’t demanding enough in the first place. \nThe toolbox for social anxiety treatment that you already have is incomplete if it doesn’t have strategies to shift perfectionism. \nJoin distinguished expert Dr. Martin M. Antony for this unique one-day training that provides practical\, step-by-step\, evidence-based strategies for helping clients overcome perfectionism-driven social anxiety. You will learn to: \n\nDeliver concrete cognitive strategies tailored to create positive change for clients who struggle with unreasonable social standards\nOvercome common roadblocks to exposure therapy and utilize exposure exercises to increase social interaction\nConnect clients with their values as a source of motivation for shifting both their perfectionistic mindset and their social behaviors\n\nYour clients need your help to address unrealistic standards and build real connections. Get the cutting-edge strategies you need to make a difference in their lives. All with our 100% Satisfaction guarantee. Register today!
