About the event
Speech therapists working with children will know how difficult it can be to meet the individual needs of each child. Especially when the child has trouble processing (sensory) information, i.e. difficult to activate, or is too active or very sensitive to sensory input. In this workshop you will learn the basic, recent (evidence based) and relevant knowledge on sensory processing disorders and its implications for speech, language and feeding.
The 3-day workshop focuses on clinical work with children, with and without cognitive and/or neurological disorders. Winnie Dunn's quadrant model for sensory processing will be used throughout the workshop to guide clinical reasoning.
