January 6, 2025, 1-4pm: Reducing Stress and Anxiety for CORE Learning on Zoom. Anxiety plagues all of us at some time in our lives. But what is anxiety really? Can any good come from being anxious? If so, how do we use it to our advantage and if not, how do we get rid of it? This workshop provides information about: Symptoms and causes of anxiety and stress; Ways to release, reduce and avoid its symptoms; Relaxation and cognitive reframing techniques; Importance of exercise and nutrition; Participants will engage in movement and relaxation exercises to learn real techniques for immediate and on-going practice and Polyvagal theory will be discussed as well.

February 20, 2025, 2-5pm: Executive Function: It Affects All Ages and Not Just in School for CORE Learning on zoom. One would assume that executive function is a conversation only about students in the school setting, but clinicians are being asked to support their clients of any age, including adults with ADHD qualities (and thus challenges with executive function). These skills are essential, yet for a myriad of reasons they are not always easily accessible for our clients. This presentation will help clinicians (and educators) to better understand executive function’s challenges, and to learn strategies to help their clients to succeed.

February 25, 3-4:30pm: Recognizing and Addressing Neurodiversity in Your Clients With Substance Use Disorder for the MATCP Conference in Grand Rapids. Develop a broader understanding of how neurosensitivities, including those with ADHD, ASD, PTSD and TBI, impact daily life. Learn how these sensitivities can potentially be a factor in alcohol and substance use. Then learn to environmentally, energetically and therapeutically address your clients with this neurodiverse knowledge.  

March 12, 2025, 1-4pm: There Are No Lazy Students for CORE Learning on zoom. This is the first presentation that I ever created, and with its updates it is still very relevant! Description: It’s easy to label students as lazy or unmotivated, but it’s important to recognize that they may lack the fundamental skills needed to succeed. Additionally, they may be struggling with anxiety, perfectionism, ASD, or ADHD, which can impact their academic performance. To address these challenges, this presentation provides effective strategies for working with underachieving students in various areas, including: Organization and Time Management, Reading and Writing Techniques, Homework and Study Habits, and Anxiety Management.

April 16, 2025, 9am-noon: Reducing Stress and Anxiety for CORE Learning on zoom. Anxiety plagues all of us at some time in our lives. But what is anxiety really? Can any good come from being anxious? If so, how do we use it to our advantage and if not, how do we get rid of it? This workshop provides information about: Symptoms and causes of anxiety and stress; Ways to release, reduce and avoid its symptoms; Relaxation and cognitive reframing techniques; Importance of exercise and nutrition; Participants will engage in movement and relaxation exercises to learn real techniques for immediate and on-going practice and Polyvagal theory will be discussed as well.
