While Low Tide Play Therapy provides play therapy for children, Hayden also offers non-therapeutic (ie it is not therapy) educational support for any adults that interact with children.

Please see below for offerings currently including workshops, speaking opportunities, and professional development.

While Hayden loves being a play therapist and engaging in play therapy sessions, he has come to realize his love for presenting and for teaching. Through these means, he hopes to equip the adults who interact with children with valuable information to better understand children, while simultaneously empowering those adults to feel better able to support children in moments of dysregulation. While Hayden works closely with the parents/guardians of each and every one of his play therapy clients, he has also presented to audiences including the 2023 Colorado School Counselor Association annual conference in Colorado and the 2024 Mediterranean Region Counselor Association annual conference in Germany.

Utilizing Neuroscience to Inform Calls for Support

Have you actually ever been taught how to de-escalate a student or respond to a call for support from a classroom? In this 1-hour course, I strive to help equip you with useful knowledge and skills so that you can respond to those calls from a place of empowerment rather than just guessing and seeing what sticks. We will explore relevant neuroscience, discuss specific examples, and give strategies to be utilized in the moment so that you can connect, regulate, and get the student back to class.

Desired Outcomes include:

- Understand the neuroscience of what is happening for your student in moments of escalation.
- Understand how to utilize the neuroscience to inform your approach to responding to your student.
- Apply strategies learned in the session to help connect to and regulate your student quicker.
