​​SAI for Adults & Adolescents

​

This six day course trains therapists in the use of Sensory Attachment Intervention with adults and adolescents. 

​

This course introduces Sensory Attachment Intervention (SAI). It trains therapists in the use of the Just Right State Programme (JRS) for Adults and Adolescents, and in the use of the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS) Profile Questionnaire. SAI looks at the process of regulation and co-regulation from an integrative and neurosequential perspective.

​

The Just Right State Programme can be used with individuals, groups or families. It focuses on developing the capacity for self-regulation, co-regulation and reflective functioning. The Just Right State Programme was developed for individuals who struggled to participate in intervention programmes because of their incapacity to regulate their emotional states. The Autonomic Nervous System Profile Questionnaire is a self-report questionnaire that looks at indicators of stress, survival behaviour responses and self-regulating behaviours. It is an exploratory tool for use with individuals to help formulate their regulating needs.

​

Course Handbook includes; assessment tools, and the Just Right State manual and JRS intervention pack.

​

Eligibility: Occupational Therapists and Physiotherapists working in LAC, CAMHS  or Forensic Mental Health Services.
