SUMMARY:Practical Strategies to Help Individuals Rally Their Motivation - Livestream
DESCRIPTION:In this 90-minute livestream course we’ll explore motivation-based myths. We’ll then contrast this information with research-based\, as well as tried-and-true methods\, to help individuals rally their motivation so they can tackle basic to complex social and organizational goals. In this journey we’ll also explore factors that get in the way of motivation such as anxiety\, perfectionism\, lagging social and organizational competencies\, and/or digital device distractions\, and then review practical strategies and tools to help individuals feel “they can” rather than “they can’t.”

SUMMARY:Screen Time and the Impact on the Development of Young Children - Webinar
DESCRIPTION:A recent meta-analysis found that there was an increase in screen time of 52% during the pandemic. As professionals treating young children for developmental delays\, we are increasingly in the position of explaining to parents that too much screen time is detrimental to development. Although families are often given guidelines about limiting screen time\, they are often lacking in information about why those guidelines were developed. Participants will learn how too much screen time affects developmental domains including speech and language\, social-emotional\, executive functioning\, and cognitive skills. Attendees will also learnstrategies to share with parents on when and how it is appropriate to introduce screens to young children. \nThe content of this program is germane to children\, students and clients ages 0-5. \nHighlights\n\nTechnology’s impact on speech and language\, social-emotional issues\, executive functioning\, and cognitive skills\nAnalyze the research behind screen time recommendations for young children\nDiscover resources and talking points to share with parents about the dangers of too much screen time\nCompare quality educational media and best practices for introducing digital educational content

SUMMARY:Impact of Visual Deficits on Motor and Cognitive Development in Infants and Toddlers - Webinar
DESCRIPTION:According to the Kaiser Family Foundation\, children spend up to seven hours a day in front of a screen. Such exposure to screen time has compromised their ability to participate in movement activities to encourage normal visual\, motor\, cognitive\, and social development. The subsequent complications can include difficulty with visual processing\, and motor and cognitive development that impact the child’s ability to learn. Screen time influence\, coupled with a need to confine children in equipment\, has further influenced how children learn. This session seeks to provide ways to identify infants and toddlers at risk for developing visual deficits that can later influence the child’s motor and cognitive development. Clinicians involved with at-risk children can potentially change a child’s developmental trajectory. \nThis course will highlight ways in which practitioners who work with infants and toddlers can use visual approaches to influence motor and cognitive development. Participants will gain an appreciation for the complexity of the child’s visual development and how this sense influences motor and cognitive skills. An initial review of the visual system\, risk factors\, and available assessments will be provided; followed by a demonstration of intervention strategies. Through interactive discussion and analysis of a case example\, participants will demonstrate practical ways to influence the visual system and provide supportive home programming to families\, caregivers\, or teachers. The participants will be able to return to their clinic\, school\, or home settings with the knowledge to support their client’s visual skill development. \nThe content of this program is germane to children\, students and clients ages 0- 18. \nHighlights\n\nEvidence review from over 10 articles that highlight the alarming problem associated with visual and motor development due to environmental influences on young children and unfortunate later effects related to learning\nPractical ways to address visual\, motor\, and cognitive development\nInteract with a case to develop solutions and create opportunities for carry-over in the home or school settings\nEffective\, evidence-based interventions to address visual\, motor\, and cognitive deficits

SUMMARY:Pediatric Sleep Dysfunction - Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Good sleep is the foundation of health\, development\, and success for all of us. Research tells us that children with sleep issues struggle with self-regulation\, learning\, social skills and are more likely to be obese. The power of sleep has been neglected as an important part of one’s overall well- being. Sleep problems are very common in children. Up to 80% of children with neurodevelopment disorders have impaired sleep. The absolute necessity of good quality sleep for a child’s well-being and development is often overlooked. Clinicians with the ability to identify sleep issues will be able to support children and families with education\, strategies\, and referrals to specialists when needed. \nThe content of this program is germane to children\, students and clients ages 0- 18. \nHighlights\n\nExamine the physiology of sleep and its importance in all aspects of growth\, development\, and learning through our lifespan\nAssessment of a child’s sleep habits with practical strategies\, family education\, and interventions for improvement

SUMMARY:Beyond Sleep Hygiene: CBT Solutions to Improve Outcomes and Resolve Insomnia in Clients with Anxiety\, PTSD\, Depression\, and More - Live Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Stuck progress. Incomplete treatment gains. Symptom recurrence. \nThese aren’t the outcomes you want for your clients. \nAnxiety\, PTSD\, and depression often share a common problem – sleep disturbance. And you’re likely underestimating its significance. \nWhile old wisdom suggested that insomnia was just a symptom of other disorders that would resolve along with the primary mental health condition… \n…new evidence reveals that not only is insomnia a risk factor for numerous behavioral health issues and medical problems – if left unaddressed\, insomnia complicates your treatment efforts and diminishes your clients’ recovery. \nInsomnia must be targeted directly – and often\, simply helping your clients sleep better actually decreases their other symptoms. \nIn this essential training\, Dr. Carney will teach you Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I)\, a powerful evidence-based\, gold-standard treatment to help your clients put chronic insomnia behind them. You’ll get the skills you need to: \n\nIncrease sleep efficiency so your clients consistently get the rest they need\nTransform your clients’ bed into a cue for sleep so they don’t toss and turn all night\nDeconstruct unhelpful beliefs to decrease anxiety about sleep\nTroubleshoot sleep-related problems at any stage of therapy\n\nRegister today and add to your clinical toolbox the treatment that is more strongly recommended than medications to improve sleep!

SUMMARY:Dyslexia and Other Language Disorders - Webinar
DESCRIPTION:An alarming number of children (approximately 67% of children nationwide and more than 80% of those from low socioeconomic backgrounds) are unable to read proficiently by the end of third grade (AECF\, 2010). Research demonstrates that students not reading proficiently by the end of third grade are four times more likely to drop out of high school (AEFC\, 2010\, Hernandez\, 2011). Extensive research based on the science of reading indicates that the effective instruction of reading and writing must include a language- based approach that is direct\, systematic\, explicit in content\, and includes a focus on the foundational skills of phonological and phonemic awareness\, vocabulary study\, and comprehension (NRP\, 2000). Children with written language disorders (difficulties with reading\, spelling\, and written expression) encounter significant barriers to educational access\, preventing them from successfully participating in academic activities and learning. \n  \nHighlights\n\nImmediately identify\, evaluate\, and plan treatment for those at risk for written language disorders\nExamine the role of the speech-language pathologist in the assessment and treatment of dyslexia and other written language disorders

SUMMARY:Emotional and Disordered Eating: Trauma-Informed Clinical Tools to Heal Your Clients' Relationship with Food and Body - Live Webinar
DESCRIPTION:When your clients struggle with eating\, your first move as a therapist may be to develop plans for specific behavioral changes – a list of things clients can do instead of reaching for the fork or limiting food intake. \nBut these efforts won’t work over the long term. Emotional eating – and the eating disorders it can become – is rooted in nervous system dysregulation and disembodiment that behavior change strategies alone won’t shift. \nThe body needs to be included for treatment to be effective. Without it\, disembodiment will continue\, keeping your clients stuck in the cycle of disordered eating and losing hope in your work with them. \nJoin Ann Saffi Biasetti\, PhD\, LCSWR\, CEDS\, specialist in eating disorders and somatic psychotherapy\, for this in-depth training where you’ll discover how to integrate the body in treatment in a way that fosters real change in your clients’ relationships with food and their bodies! \nPacked with practical interventions\, this comprehensive seminar will provide you with strategies to: \n\nShift from shame to empowerment from the very beginning of treatment\nCalm the nervous system and regulate emotions without turning to food\nHelp clients re-establish body cues for hunger and fullness\nReplace the harsh inner critic with self-compassion\n\nRegister today to help clients manage what is happening on the inside to build resilience\, improve emotion regulation\, and establish a new compassionate and forgiving relationship with their body!

SUMMARY:Pediatric Feeding and Swallowing Disorders - Webinar
DESCRIPTION:According to recent data published in Gastrointestinal Disorders\, feeding disorders occur in up to 45% of the general pediatric population and up to 80% of children with developmental disabilities and complex medical conditions. The etiology of these disorders is often as varied as the clinical experiences and knowledge of the professionals who are providing treatment. Therefore\, when working with children who are experiencing feeding and swallowing challenges\, it is essential to have an understanding and knowledge of their medical history\, etiology of the disorder\, prior and current nutritional intake\, sensory and behavioral responses\, and caregiver(s’) involvement to provide the most comprehensive assessments and treatment plans. \nThis course will discuss key deficits and risk factors that need to be identified to develop a multidisciplinary plan of care based on the principle of specificity. Sensory and motor aspects of feeding and swallowing will also be addressed in addition to other barriers to successful oral intake. Guidelines for each of these areas within a developmental framework will be presented as well and evidence-based practice patterns will be discussed to develop effective treatment protocols and to identify ongoing assessment needs. Ethical and legal considerations regarding swallowing safety\, oral feedings\, and parent/caregiver choices will also be addressed collaboratively. \nHighlights\n\nDevelop a comprehensive protocol for identifying feeding and swallowing dysfunction and risk factors in pediatric clients\nIntegrate a multidisciplinary team approach in a PT/OT/SLP practice for the treatment of pediatric feeding and swallowing disorders
