Executive Function Training for Professionals and Carers

As well as being a Neuropsychologist, Ruth is also an Allied Health Educator and has completed facilitator training. Ruth has over 16 years experience in providing practical, evidence-based training on executive function for early educators, teachers, allied health professionals, foster care and support staff, and families. Executive function skills are essential for all children and young people, including those with diverse needs such as neurodevelopmental differences, trauma backgrounds, or medical conditions.

Ruth’s workshops will help you understand and support executive function development in everyday settings. Training is available face-to-face or online and can be tailored to your team’s needs. Her training emphasises genuine collaboration; helping adults work alongside children to understand their perspectives, identify obstacles, and co-create solutions for home, school, and community settings.
