DESCRIPTION:
This series of classes introduces participants to the magnificent process of translating research findings into their client work, thus promoting evidence-based practice. We will use movement and imagery as a model for practicing informed clinical decision making and therapy design. Participants will be encouraged to bring case studies to work on throughout the sessions for their personal and professional growth.
Participants will learn:
• To describe the neuro-motor-cognitive mechanisms connecting physical and imaged movement
• To translate research findings into practice in an informed manner
• To develop evidence-based treatments within the participant's area of expertise
