Heads, Shoulders, Knees & Toes... & eyes & ears & mouth & nose - joining the sensory, motor, interoceptive, proprioceptive and vestibular dots. A child development model of creative intervention

Updated: Jun 12


The Centre for Creative Therapeutic Practice is excited to launch their two-day course in Creative Therapeutic Practice to Support Children with Neurodiversity and/or Autism.  This course is endorsed by the Counselling and Psychotherapy Central Awarding Body (CPCAB).

 

⁠The significant year-on-year global increase of autism diagnoses presents a particular challenge for a Health Care system already under considerable stress. NICE guidelines recommend maximum waiting times of 13 weeks for clients referred for autism assessments, however waiting lists in the UK are generally around 5 times this length, preventing best practice from being implemented.⁠


This also means that creative therapists and other professionals are being referred more children and young people pre or post assessment and are required to adapt their interventions to address and support additional needs.

Early creative intervention for autistic children and young people provides a unique golden opportunity to support development, social communication and emotional regulation, mitigating some of the more distressing accompanying symptoms.⁠

 

With significant experience in delivery and creative therapeutic service design for autistic children and young people The Centre for Creative Therapeutic Practice is delivering a 2 day training that will support practitioners working with autistic children and young people.

 

This course draws on researched interventions to combine theory and practice with opportunities to design effective interventions for autistic children and young people with the support of Mary Rose and Patricia. We also have the honour to include some sensory-motor exercises designed by autistic CYP.

 

Total cost for two-day course - £240 running on Friday 20th and Saturday 21st September 2024.  There is also an optional 2 day follow up course with tuition and supervision support from Mary Rose and Patricia.
