P-5 Competency Domain 1:Early Childhood Development: how development unfolds from conception to age 5 across social, emotional, cognitive, language, physical, and motor development and ways to responsively support it.

Linking Sensory Integration and Mental Health in Nurturing Self-Regulation in Infants and Young Children

July 13th - 2-3:30 PM ET

Each child has a unique pattern of receiving, registering, combining, discriminating, and responding to information from their senses about the world. You have a vital role to play in helping infants and young children interact with their environments and the significant people and relationships in them. Dr. Susan Stallings-Sahler and Dr. Gilbert Foley wrote this book for you—a broad multidisciplinary audience of service providers, researchers, and policymakers. As authors, academics, and clinicians, Susan and Gil come to this work with several decades of training and research in occupational therapy, developmental psychology, early intervention, infant and early childhood mental health (IECMH), and neuroscience. Perhaps more importantly, they bring a keen interest in integrating and synthesizing current thinking about the sensory, motor, neurobehavioral, and social–emotional development of infants and young children. Join this unique opportunity to dialogue with the authors and discover critical links between sensory processing, sensory processing disorders, and IECMH for infants to 5 year olds.

This learning experience will help participants become aware of this important and timely upcoming resource and expand their vision for integrating knowledge and practices from sensory/motor processing and mental health perspectives to the development of self-regulation and intervention for conditions of dysregulation in infants and young children.

As a result of attending this webinar, participants will be able to:

1. Identify contributions from both sensory processing and mental health perspectives to the development of self-regulation;
2. Identify the contributions from impaired sensory processing and mental health perspectives to conditions of dysregulation;
3. Explain how sensory processing disorders can contribute to challenges in mental health and relationships;
4. Present a rationale for sensory integration and mental health interventions working collaboratively.
