Zoomin' over Zoom: Adapted Strategies with Children Ages Zero to Six via Telehealth

In this session, we explore adapting strategies for engagement and treatment with young children from zero to six years old, over the telehealth platform. We discuss the unique and effective characteristics of the tandem approach to “co-treatment,” which enhances the developmentally-appropriate, play-based approaches we know help our young children heal. In this session, we include recorded demonstrations of some activities conducted over telehealth, to assist participants with understanding how the developmentally-informed strategies appear in practice.
