Mentoring for Health Professionals

Are you a health professional interested in learning more about a Mindfulness-Based Sensory Regulation approach for your clients? Are you curious about how to support your self regulation through mindfulness and self-compassion in order to feel more grounded when working with clients? If yes, this individual mentoring session is for you. Join Shannon or Emily to explore how these components will support you both personally and professionally.  

Shannon and Emily are excited to offer the Mindful Sensations Program tailored to clinicians and educators wanting to take a deeper dive into its content, practices and exercises. This enhanced program will provide an opportunity to learn and practice Mindful Sensations in a group format. Join us to experience first hand how this approach will support your clinical work. 

This Masterclass will provide you with:

• an introduction to how you might approach and build awareness of sensory regulation through mindfulness
• strategies to use after a neurological event such as a stroke, mild brain injury, concussion, or functional neurological disorder (FND) diagnosis 
• a basic understanding of the hierarchy of cognitive recovery
• how to address clients' challenges with sensory overload
• an understanding of how sensory overload impacts daily activities and recovery
• how to support clients to find the right level of challenge without moving into overload or avoiding activities
• experiential learning that will help you understand your own sensory experience and how you can support clients through co-regulation
• a chance to communicate with other OTs working in this area of practice

This was presented as part of a Masterclass series with Sarah Good OT
