Using methods that can help us gain insight into the interoception experiences of the clients we serve can be extremely valuable. However, when it comes to interoception-based assessment, it can be very confusing to know where to start, what tool to use and how to adapt an assessment in order to meet the needs of a variety of learners. This live course will provide many practical assessment tips and strategies that can be used to help us to better gain better understanding of our clients’ inner experiences, which in turn leads to our ability to support them in the most meaningful manner.

Instruction on how to use these assessment tools will be provided as well as tips on how to adapt these assessment tools for successful use with a variety of learners.
