TASSK Webinars
'TASSK' (Tools and Strategies to Support Kids) is a pre-recorded online Occupational Therapy led workshop. The webinar is facilitated by Occupational Therapists who work with children and young people within CAMHS (Children & Adolescent Mental Health Service) and East Lothian Council. The 3 webinars are based on the Person, Environment, and Occupation (PEO) Occupational Therapy Model. This model is used to:
Educate families and provide information evidence informed and child centred approaches for children or young people who may struggle with some of the following: emotional regulation, attention, transitions, sensory difficulties, relationships, structure and routine.
Develop a better understanding of your child’s needs, interests and motivation to support their development using a strength-based approach.
Explore the impact of a child’s surroundings and how it can affect their engagement in activities.
Provide strategies to support your child as best as you can to increase the child’s enjoyment and engagement in everyday life.
