Sensory Attachment Intervention Foundation Module (PART ONE)

Monday 16th March – Day 1

Monday 23rd March and 24th March – Day 2 & 3

Description of course
This three-day course will look at the theories that provide the framework for SAI. Emphasis will be on the impact of trauma on sensory processing, and on the capacity for self and co-regulation. Participants will learn the neurosequential approach to intervention; that is, when it is most effective to use interventions such as narrative work, play therapy, and education. They will learn the principles of up-regulation and down-regulation to enable physiological adaptation for social engagement and academic learning.

The foundation module is taught in two parts, Part 1 and Part 2. Each part is also a stand-alone course and can be done in any order.
Both parts have to be completed before proceeding on the training pathway and attending other SAI courses.

Objectives and Outcomes from the course
Over the course of the three days you will learn:

• Understand the impact of Developmental Trauma and Insecure Attachment on behaviour and regulation.
• A basic understanding of Sensory Processing.
• An understanding of Levels of Self Regulation and how these inform our choice of intervention/s.
• How to provide enriched regulating environments in the home, school, clinic and contact centres.
• The benefits of a trans-disciplinary approach – case study illustration.

Attendance certificates will be issued by the SAI Centre.
