Speaker's Bio Testimonials  

The prevalence of early developmental disorders is increasing, drawing the attention of researchers who examine brain development, clinicians and educators alike. Some early developmental disorders are the result of physical, verbal or emotional abuse. When working with all children, the clinician or educator's understanding and ability to intervene is improved by knowing how these developmental disorders interfere with social, emotional and intellectual development. Early recognition and diagnosis lead to more opportunities for early treatment. Professionals not aware of the newest research and interventions will struggle to give the child the best possible help and risk becoming overwhelmed by the challenges of helping these children.

This one-day seminar describes cutting edge brain research, brain development and the neuropsychological unfolding of early developmental disorders. Protocols for identification, assessment and treatment will be described in detail. Participants will learn how brain impairment results in related symptom clusters with matching strategies and interventions. This seminar is designed to provide an understanding of each disorder, the relationship to brain development, methods for differential diagnosis and specific practical ways to support brain growth. Professionals who work with and understand children will benefit from this precise, clear and critically valuable new research.
