Topic: Curiosity, Wondering & Making Meaning of Trauma Experiences: How Our Story Makes Us Who We Are
Speaker: David Walker
The whole make up of early life experiences influence who we are; the way we see ourselves and our ability for connection and belonging. Many of the children and adults we support have internalised damaging messages, which have affected the way they see themselves in relation to others and their environment. Many blame themselves, consciously and unconsciously, for being who they are, and believe that everything went wrong the moment they were born. Using their stories provides a narrative of fact and imagination from which they can positively challenge preconceived distorted thinking and understand that often it's not them but us that have caused the problem.
In this free webinar, Studio 3 practitioner David Walker, who specialises in working with looked after children in foster and residential care, will speak about using curiosity and meaning making to help people understand themselves and the world around them.
Monday 11th September 2023, 5pm - 6pm UK Time

Speaker: Kelly Mahler and Rachael Thompson
Interoception is an important sensory system that helps us to experience internal body signals like a full bladder, growling stomach, tense muscles or speeding heart. Research indicates that our ability to clearly notice and interpret these internal body signals enables us to accurately identify and manage how we feel. This webinar will provide an overview of what the latest research tells us about interoception as well as how we can use a process of curiosity and co-regulation to validate a client’s interoceptive experience and promote inner connection and self-understanding.

I now work as the Inclusion Ambassador/ SEND Advocate at Bury Council, in addition to running the Facebook page ‘Autistic Life’ in my spare time. My goal is to make sure that the current generation of SEND children and young people avoid the struggles previous generations have faced.
