SUMMARY:Self Regulation 2025
DESCRIPTION:SELF REGULATION \nWEDNESDAY SEPTEMBER 10TH – 08:30 – 16:30 \nPresented by Kate Keisler and Emily Burns \nSelf regulation is a skill everyone needs to thrive across all ages. It is a common occupational therapy goal for occupational therapists working with children and families\, with widely varied research. It is an essential skill for development\, and something that can impact every area of our life\, at every point. Yet there are such different views of what it actually is\, and how to develop self regulation. \nThis workshop comes from a lens supporting children\, families and adults around children to learn self regulation\, however the concepts and models are applicable across ages. Here are some of the topics that we will cover in this workshop: \n\nWhat is self-regulation? Looking into the differing definitions and perceptions of self regulation in practice\, and society. Self-regulation can be an ambiguous topic so we will go through some of the fields of thought\, and the evidence behind these\, to delve into what self-regulation actually is.\nAn overview of self regulation frameworks and tools\, and the evidence behind these.\nDeveloping self regulation: assessment and intervention approaches for practice.\n\nAbout the Presenters :- \nKate Keisler is an Occupational Therapist who started Calm and Connected in July 2014 to focus on kids with social\, emotional and sensory difficulties. She found that these children were often labelled as ‘naughty’\, rather than their actions meaning that they needed more help. Kate is passionate about giving parents and teachers the knowledge and strategies to support their child. It is often that kids just need to be understood\, parents feel empowered and small practical ideas given to allow kids to feel safe and supported in their own bodies. \nKate has travelled to Melbourne and Sydney for training and mentorship. She has attended courses from leading Occupational Therapists from all over the world. There is always so much more to learn! Kate is passionate about bringing this knowledge to Perth through hosting clinical leaders in Perth and running regular training for therapists.Kate believes in developing the understanding of  Occupational Therapists working in Paediatrics in Perth to provide a high-quality clinical service to families. \nEmily Burns has worked at Calm and Connected since graduating in 2015 with a Bachelor of Science (Occupational Therapy).  Calm and Connected is a private\, community-based practice\, working with children\, families and schools\, including delivering positive behaviour support services. In addition to individualised services\, Calm and Connected run therapy camps throughout the year\, which Emily has been a team leader on since the first camp in Perth\, in 2015. Emily has jointly presented with Kate Keisler at guest lectures at both Curtin University and Edith Cowen University and has presented many other workshops online\, and face-to-face on topics such as self-regulation and sensory processing. \n\n\n\nDate\nWednesday September 10th\, 2025 \n08:30 – 16:30\n\n\nVenue\nPagoda Conference Room\, Pagoda Resort\, 112 Melville Parade\, Como\n\n\nCost\n  \nStandard rate after 10/7/25 \nMember $300.00 \nStudent $150.00 \nRural/remote member $237.50 \nNon-members $545.00\n\n\nRefreshments\nWelcome Tea/Coffee\, Morning tea\, lunch and afternoon tea will be provided.\n\n\n\n  \nBook online
