Kati Berlin, MS, OTR/L, occupational therapist at the Pineville office of Child and Family Development, completed expanded training titled “Anxiety Disorders in Children & Adolescents, Recognizing & Treating the Emerging Epidemic”.
Kati learned more about types of anxiety that are prevalent in childhood and adolescents, including techniques for managing it. Concepts include self-regulation, self-calming strategies, breathing techniques, yoga, activities of interest, mindfulness and others. She plans to apply this knowledge to her work, especially as a part of sensory processing intervention.
