Angela Mansolillo, Varleisha D. Gibbs & April Christopherson – Treating Autism, ADHD, Sensory Processing Disorders & Trauma

You have a passion for helping children…

Working in a pediatric rehab setting, you’re already seeing children with motor, sensory & behavior deficits every day…children who have trouble walking, eating, dressing, attending school, and making friends.

Each of these children are unique. Each one has individual gifts, values and needs. And you have the power to help these children and their families experience a better quality of life.

These cases are challenging — which makes it critical to approach this work from an evidence-based perspective. The work is hard, but you can help each of these young people reach their maximum potential by applying lifechanging interventions.

Which is why we’re sharing with you innovative, proven strategies and methods that treat the core issues in pediatric rehab: motor control, language, sensory development, auditory processing, reflex integration, delayed developmental milestones, and more!

To help you get through it, we’ve brought together the nation’s top clinicians to provide you with hundreds of tools that you can start using within a matter of days, or even hours! Learn the most effective therapies to rewire the brain and discover how neuroplasticity is remapping pathways in the brain for faster, longer-lasting outcomes.

Let this course be your secret weapon as you start changing lives for your patients and their families, teaching them how to apply these powerful skills at home.

In a rehab setting, you’re required to use flexibility and creativity just as much as you’re required to use your background training, education and knowledge. Enhance all of these skills with this completely self-paced course.

Grow your clinical competency and fill your toolbox with the advanced skills provided in this completely self-paced course. Within days, you’ll be creating therapeutic plans based on these proven developmental theories and scientific principles.
