Karen Lea Hyche, Robbie Levy & Susan Hamre – Early Interventions Social-Emotional, Sensory & ASD Development
What if we told you that you could prevent disruptive and social-emotional behavioral concerns in children? Even for those exhibiting early signs of Autism?
You CAN! When you’re able to identify the subtle signs of developmental delays and diagnose early, you can effectively interrupt and replace the behavioral concerns with effective treatment strategies. With this online course, you’ll walk away confident in your ability to make positive changes at an early age to influence children’s behaviors and help improve self-regulation, social skills, and overall development.
Gain the activities and resources you need to promote long-lasting social-emotional growth for infants and young children who have developmental delays, behavior issues or speech and language delays:
- Treatment techniques to STOP temper tantrums and meltdowns, including difficulty with transitions
- Assessment tools to identify the early and subtle signs of autism and sensory processing disorders
- Brain-based interventions to keep children on-task and focused on people or activities
- Strategies to incorporate into the home, daycare, school, and clinic
- And so much more!
Through case studies and video demonstrations, you’ll sharpen your critical observational skills to recognize the symptoms early and develop children’s performance in executive function, pre-academics, and motor skills before their disruptive coping behaviors become their norm later in life…
