Presented by Kim Vander Dussen, Psy.D., RPT-S 

Understanding the sensory systems and how their function and dysfunction impact children in play therapy is a crucial competency to develop.

Learning Objectives: 

Participants will be able to:

1. identify the 8 sensory systems.

2. describe interoception and its relationship to symptoms present in children in play therapy.

3. identify and describe at least 5 sensory based play therapy interventions.
