From The Ground Up OT

03/06/2026

Aside from treating patients I also have the incredible opportunity of teaching continuing education courses to OT providers and parents! The upcoming one is especially applicable for so many of our children today and focuses on self-regulation and impulse control (among other things) and I'm super excited to teach it!

This coming Wednesday is the "Functional Treatment Strategies to Support Self-Regulation and Executive Function Skills in Children" webinar from 6-10pm LIVE on Sensational Brain. https://sensationalbrain.com/product/live-functional-treatment-strategies/

Other courses are available as well that have been presented this year or will be presented in coming months! There is also a "package" of all the intervention webinars totaling 14 hours of content available here: https://sensationalbrain.com/product/ot-treatment-interventions/

- OT Treatment Interventions for Self-Care Skills
- Fine Motor and UE Gross Motor Treatment Interventions
- Functional Treatment Strategies to Support Self-Regulation and - Executive Functioning Skills in Children
- Vision Rehabilitation Intervention Activities for Pediatric OTs
- Functional Impact of Visual Challenges

Every time a child chooses what to play and how to play it, they’re building the brain power they'll use for life. 💚

Executive functioning isn’t taught, it’s practiced. And play is the perfect practice ground.

Strong EF skills help children initiate ideas, navigate challenges, pursue goals, and stay in control of their actions and emotions.

Executive functioning is the foundation for later success --
in school, in relationships, and in life.
