Basic Consultation

Basic Consultation occurs in a group format and promotes the therapists’ ability to apply the knowledge gained from SMART Foundations within their own clinical setting. In Video Reflection, emphasis is placed on developing and practicing the therapists’ Tracking Skills to:

• Identify indicators of the child’s state using the Regulation Map
• Assess child’s use of auto-, co-, or self-regulation.
• Strengthen their ability to identify the Regulation Tools the child may be seeking in their play
• Refine foundational Therapist Skills to guide clinical Choice Points for assessment and treatment.

Group consultation is offered in a package of six 1.5 hour meetings a month. Participation is a prerequisite for the second level Implementation Course. Readiness to move to Implementation varies by individual.

Fee: $600 for six meetings
Hours: 9 hrs virtual meetings,  2 hrs independent work
