The Executive Brain: Support Strategies For Autism Spectrum Disorder And ADHD
Presented by Cara Koscinski, OTD, MOT, OTR/L, CAS
Live WebinarThu, May 28, 2026 at 3:00 pm EDT
Course: #7056Level: Intermediate2 Hours
This two-hour virtual course examines executive function through an interoception-informed, state-based lens, emphasizing that access to executive skills depends on nervous system readiness rather than motivation or compliance. Participants will explore how neurological up- and down-regulation influence executive access and how movement serves as a primary pathway for organizing state, supporting attention, and preparing the brain for cognitive demand. Using The Executive Function Express framework and its Move the Train to Build the Brain strategies, the course demonstrates how purposeful, developmentally appropriate movement can stabilize the “tracks” needed for planning, initiation, flexibility, and follow-through. A strengths-based, neurodiversity-affirming approach is emphasized throughout, guiding participants to shift from behavior-focused interpretations to interventions that build capacity, access, and self-trust.
