Specialised Online Course for Professionals, Parents, and Carers

An Introduction to Sensory Attachment Intervention:
Enabling Co-Regulation and Self-Regulation
The Voice of the Child

17th July 2020 ONLINE TRAINING COURSE 10am-5pm Fee: €110

Have you ever wondered what it might be like for a child who has sensory attachment issues? If asked what their perspective was on their relationships with the adults who care for them and on how they, the children, view the world what would they say? What are their needs and challenges? How can we meet those needs?
If you are interested in exploring these questions and more why not join us online to find the answers as we present this workshop through the voice of the child.
This innovative day will draw on the works of Levine, Perry, Crittenden, Schore and Breathnach and integrate the facilitators many years of experience in the education sector, and as a Parent Mentor, Play Therapist and Sensory Attachment Intervention Practitioner. This course will provide you with information that will help you to understand Sensory Attachment Intervention and will assist you in supporting children in your care.
The aim of this training day is to provide you with further knowledge that will help deepen your understanding of challenging behaviours that arise out of sensory and attachment issues. This will support you in your practice with children and their primary carers.
The day will be divided into 3 parts:
Part 1: Attachment Theory and Timeline
Attachment Types of Parents
Part 2: Relationships and Neuroscience
Part 3: Attachment Types of Children and Sensory Patterns of Children
How adults can help children to regulate in times of stress

  • Begin to identify your own attachment type
  • Identify different attachment types of both adults and children
