The Action Is In the Interaction
The Developmental, Individual Difference
& Relationship Based Approach
The Action is in the Interaction is a training developed by Kathy Walmsley, OT from Perth, and Mari Caulfield, SLP from Galway in Ireland, from many years of experience of working within interdisciplinary contexts with families who have children with communication and learning difficulties, regulatory challenges, and children with behaviours that place them on the autistic spectrum.
Mari and Kathy share a common passion for their work and have co-presented The Action is In the Interaction training since 2008 in Australia, Ireland, and Internationally, bringing a wealth of practical experience as well as clinical knowledge and expertise to their teaching style. Participants will leave the training with specific strategies and tools to support their clinics, work or home settings.
