2024 CONFERENCE SESSION

SESSION: Unlocking the Brain’s Potential: Responding to Learning Difficulties Through a Cognitive Approach

If learning difficulties are getting in the way of your child’s success, it’s time to understand and explore solutions through a cognitive lens. When learning challenges exist, well-being can become compromised, impacting the ability to navigate life, relationally, emotionally and physically, now and into the future. In this session you will gain insights into how the performance of your child’s cognitive functions, reflected in their cognitive profile, provides an understanding of the origin of the difficulties and how Arrowsmith can provide support through a neuroplastic approach.

The Brain Can Change and so can your child’s ability to navigate the world.
