Join CEO and Founder of ExQ, Sucheta Kamath for a FREE Workshop at the 19th Annual Autism Extravaganza.
The essential ingredient of personal, social, and interpersonal success is the ability to adapt with resiliency during changing environment and challenging times. A healthy prefrontal system enables individuals to adjust behaviors, reappraise emotions and redirect actions flexibly to achieve goals in service of the future-self. Evidence from neuroscience and cognitive psychology suggests that Executive Function skills are highly malleable and are sensitive to training by cultivating future-forward emotions.
In this presentation, Sucheta Kamath will discuss the interplay between core features of autism and Executive Function and motivational vs. self-regulatory challenges experienced by children, adolescents and adults with ASD. This session will also present effective and evidence-based strategies to improve future-oriented reasoning and emotional regulation that effectively predicts performance challenges, improves anticipation of glitches, and handling of mistakes while keeping in mind the need of the future-self.
We’d love to spend some time with you at the Extravaganza, share a cup of coffee to discuss how Georgia’s educational leaders are partnering with ExQ to implement Executive Function curriculum around the country, and explore ways to bring ExQ’s innovative curriculum to your school or practice to help build the Executive Function skills needed to succeed in school and in life!
