When: April 29, 30, 2023
Where: Bath, UK
Description: Therapists, educators and parents are noting that behaviours across a continuum of diagnostic categories are ever increasing in numbers. Therapists have many wonderful ideas to support goals and growth for developmental delay, if only they could get the “behaviours” under control! This workshop will explore behavior from several different frames of references to support the clinical thinking process. Included will be a hierarchical overview from a developmental lens and its impact on different aspects of academic, social, and emotional performance areas. The impact of attachment and trauma is immense, and the guiding principles of intervention will be helpful to all. The workshop will also discuss the way autistics think (as best we can!) and propose respectful ways of mobilising their mind towards a calmer experience that would be supportive of new learning going forward. Intervention ideas will be shared throughout, and the participant will feel equipped with multiple practical ideas to consider in intervention. This workshop is applicable for interdisciplinary teams as well as across the age and stage continuum of development. It is a one-of-a-kind workshop that is not to be missed!

Bio: Maude is a globally known presenter on a variety of different topics. She hails from South Africa, graduated in 1984, and opened her private practice in Glen Mills, USA in 2001. All her work and training stems from the theory of Sensory Integration, as it applies to all areas of functional every-day living. Maude travels extensively across the globe as she is a respected speaker at multiple workshops and conferences. She opened the Maude Le Roux Academy in January 2019 as her travel schedule disallowed her the pleasure of feeling “grounded” in her own home! Maude accomplished multiple certifications throughout the years and continues her journey of being a life- long learner. She believes in giving back to her community and has served on the Board of Directors for ATTACh for the past 7 years. Maude co-authored the book, Our Greatest Allies, with Lauren O’Malley and hopes to find the time in the next 5 years to finish another book she has been labouring over. Her wish is for every therapist to come fully into their own being, be their authentic selves, so their clients can also transition from sometimes fragmented places to a new sense of wholeness.
