Course Description
This innovative course represents a revolutionary approach that fuses spirituality with the core principles of occupational therapy. It is meticulously crafted to empower pediatric occupational therapists in harnessing their healing capabilities, not only for the benefit of their clients but also for their personal growth and well-being. Through a dynamic blend of lectures and hands-on experiential learning, participants will acquire the skills to curate therapeutic spaces that enable children to actively participate in their own healing journey.
At its core, this course explores the profound concept of co-regulation at multiple levels, from cellular interactions to the integration of body and mind, offering therapists a gateway to unlocking their full potential in facilitating healing. Embracing an advanced paradigm, we will delve into the realms of quantum physics and spiritual support, pushing the boundaries of traditional therapy. This course is recommended for seasoned practitioners who are seeking a profound learning experience that opens doors to new dimensions of healing and personal development, transcending the boundaries of conventional occupational therapy practice.
