Learn more: https://www.sensoryintegrationeducation.com/courses/(G96)-Reflective-Practice-1-July-2024 Join us for an immersive webinar tailored for sensory integration practitioners, focused on the art and science of reflective practice. In this session, we delve into the transformative power of reflection in nurturing the clinician's professional identity and reinforcing their sense of self within the therapeutic landscape. We'll explore the crucial role reflective practice plays in safeguarding the human relationships at the core of our profession and in resisting the impersonal tendencies of traditional medical models that often overlook the client's holistic needs. The session is designed not only as a learning experience but also as a rejuvenating space, offering sensory integration practitioners the chance to engage in a collective reflective process. This is an opportunity to reflect on personal growth, mitigate the effects of vicarious trauma, and rekindle the passion for client care. Through this reflective journey, we aim to empower practitioners to return to their roles revitalized, with a renewed commitment to delivering empathetic, client-centered care. As we navigate the intricate fabric of sensory integration therapy, this webinar will provide a structured approach to reflective supervision, offering strategies to balance the competing demands of biomedical and psychosocial models of care. We'll dissect the challenges of integrating theory into practice, managing the known and the unknown, and bridging the gap between high-level concepts and the 'swampy lowlands' of real-world application. Participants will gain insights into the dichotomy of technical-rational and tacit-relational knowledge, and the dynamic interplay between 'being' and 'doing' in therapeutic settings. Open to all. Ideal for SI therapists and those in training. A basic knowledge of SI is recommended. Applicable across the lifespan.
