Development day style - thinking about assessment of shoulder girdle strength, exploring ideas of how we continue to build a community of practitioners and most importantly how we capture the child’s experience of working with us. Topped off with flowers for every member of the team as a thank you for all their hard work, the ubiquitous lunchtime fuddle and a local walk to find the horses we’ve enjoyed watching from our office window for the last 18 months!

We are proud to announce that our Specialist Occupational Therapist Jette Lemvig is now an accredited BUSS Model Practitioner after successful completion of her level 3 practicum.

Building Underdeveloped Sensorimotor Systems is a clinical intervention developed by Sarah Lloyd, Specialist Occupational Therapist and Play Therapist for children who have experienced complex developmental trauma. It is a dyadic intervention where the BUSS® practitioner works with and through the child’s parents/carers to improve the child’s bodily and emotional regulation as well as the attachment relationship.

It combines a neurosequential understanding of trauma and attachment processes with sensory integration. When children have experienced abuse and neglect, they are unlikely to have had the nurturing, safe early attachment relationships and movement experiences that allow their foundation sensorimotor systems to develop so that they are functioning well. As such the intervention is founded on three key principles: relationship, playfulness and movement.

Igale Lapsele Pere toob taas maale BUSS® (Building Underdeveloped Sensorimotor Systems) Level One koolituse.

Esmalt toimub 22.02.2024 BUSS® mudelit tutvustav veebiseminar (info meie varasemates postitustes), mille järgselt 3-5. juunil on Suurbitannia suurepärase kogemusega koolitajad/praktikud (BUSS® mudeli väljatöötajad) ka Eestis ja jagavad meile oma teadmisi ja kogemust.

BUSS® koolituse esimese mooduli eesmärk on suurendada osalejate teadmisi ja mõistmist sellest, kuidas kasutada seda mudelit 5-18aastaste laste ja nende vanematega töötades. Koolitusel kasutatakse erinevaid õpetamismeetodeid, juhtumiarutelusid, videomaterjale, rühmatöid ja mudeli
rakendamises vilunud lapsevanemate kogemusi.
BUSS® koolituse esimese mooduli läbinud omavad ülevaadet sensomotoorsete süsteemide alusest ning suhete ja arenguks vajalike liikumiskogemuste koosmängust. Osalejad õpivad, kuidas see mudel võimaldab lapsevanematel ja hooldajatel oma lapsi toetada, et pakkuda neile selliseid varasemas elus puudu
jäänud hädavajalikke puudutuste, hoolitsuse ja liikumise kogemusi, mis keha regulatsioonivõimet arendavad.

Eestis toimuval koolitusel käsitletakse ka BUSS® LEAPlets programmi, mis on mõeldud 3-7aastastele lastele ja nende vanematele. Õpitakse, kuidas grupitöö toimub ja kuidas
grupis läbiviidavad tegevused toetavad lapsevanema ja lapse suhet ning lapse sensomotoorsete süsteemide aluspõhja. Selle koolituse osa läbimine tagab gruppide läbiviimisest huvitatutele võimaluse osaleda edaspidi veebi teel kliinilistes supervisioonides. Osalejad hakkavad mõistma laste varase ea kogemusi ja motoorika arengut, sensomotoorsete süsteemide aluspõhja ning õpivad, kuidas saadud informatsiooni kasutades luua hüpotees lapse propriotseptiivse, vestibulaarse ja taktiilse funktsioneerimise kohta. Osalejaid juhendatakse, kuidas kasutada BUSS® hindamisvahendit ja toetada peresid, kes kaaluvad selle lähenemise kasulikkust oma lapsele.

Kuna koolitusgrupi suurus on piiratud, siis tasub hakata mõtlema ja infot jagama.

PS. Reklaam lahti "klikkides" näeb mud infot paremini :). Ja nagu ikka, saab teavet ka meie info e-posti ja infotelefoni kaudu.

We are so looking forward to working with you again.

All set with this beautiful view for day 2 of level 1 training with Cumberland Virtual School - what an amazing commitment to growing BUSS practice in Cumbria we’ve seen over the last few years. Such a pleasure to be part of this journey.

We’re thrilled to have added the first practitioners to be accredited outside of the BUSS at Oakdale team in Leeds to our accreditation register. Congratulations 🥳
Although BUSS is impactful delivered face to face or remotely, our dream is for families to have the choice of working with our team in Leeds OR, if they prefer, to meet an accredited BUSS practitioner closer to home.
You can find the list of practitioners accredited to provide BUSS interventions or who are in training with us here ⬇️ If you’d like a chat about whether BUSS would be a good fit for your family you can contact us at [email protected] and we’d be so happy to arrange to speak.
