In this episode we are talking all talking about a wide range of topics that surprisingly have a lot in common! We’re talking about emotional regulation, OT coaching and supervision strategies with the wonderful Dr. Áine O’Dea. We discuss:
- How understanding the brain helps OTs in supporting emotional regulation.
- The effects of stress on the nervous system and effective strategies for OTs.
- The integration of bottom-up and top-down therapeutic strategies in sessions.
- Differences between coaching and traditional therapy and when to use each approach.
- The role of neuroscience in coaching and its impact on behaviour change.
- Applying self-determination theory in occupational therapy.
- Key coaching strategies and the transition challenges OTs face in adopting new roles.
