Sensory Needs – Wednesday 23 September
Explore sensory systems and how sensory information may be processed differently.

Anxiety & Distressed Behaviour – Wednesday 7 October
Learn how to understand and respond to behaviours that may be difficult to manage.

The course will also introduce the “What, Why, How” approach to interpreting behaviour and provide practical tips to support communication, reduce anxiety and respond to distress.

The sessions are aimed at supporting parents and carers to develop greater understanding and practical approaches that can be used in everyday life.
