SUMMARY:Webinar: Behaviour vs Development: Why developmental foundations matter for autistic individuals
DESCRIPTION:When an autistic person struggles with a meltdown\, a refusal\, repetitive behavior\, the instinct is often to manage the behavior. But what if the behavior isn’t the problem? This free webinar looks at why a developmental approach to autism gets better long-term outcomes for autistic individuals\, than a behavioral one. \n[mailerlite_form form_id=4]\nWho this webinar is for\nThis session is open to anyone who is autistic\, or supports or works with autistic individuals: \n\nParents and caregivers looking for approaches that go beyond compliance\nTeachers\, therapists\, and support workers\n Anyone who has tried behavioral strategies and found the results weren’t what was expected\n\nWhat you’ll learn\n\nWhy behavior is often communication\, compensation\, or coping\, it is not the problem itself\nHow behavioral and developmental approaches differ in practice\nThe Davis Autism developmental framework: Individuation\, Identity Development\, and Social Integration\nWhat Davis-specific tools look like in practice\, including Auditory Orientation\, Concept of Self\, and our signature clay modelling\nA real before-and-after case example showing what developmental growth actually looks like\n\nBehavior is visible. Development is what’s underneath.\nMost autism interventions focus on what you can see: the meltdown\, the refusal\, the rigid rule-following. Behavioral approaches try to reduce or replace those responses using rewards\, repetition\, and prompts. That can produce short-term results — but the change often doesn’t transfer to new situations\, and it rarely builds the internal understanding that makes real independence possible. \nThe Davis developmental approach asks a different question: what developmental foundations need supporting? Behavior is often a sign that something underneath hasn’t been fully integrated yet. When you address that\, you get change that sticks. \nThe three developmental foundations\nThe Davis approach builds on three sequential stages. Each one depends on the last. \n1. Individuation — “I am Me”\nA grounded sense of self as separate from others and the environment. This underpins body awareness\, sensory regulation\, attention\, and self-regulation. In the Davis Autism Approach\, this is supported through Auditory Orientation and the Concept of Self. Without this foundation\, everything built on top is unstable. \n2. Identity Development\nLearning the concepts that help a person understand themselves and the world — not through repetition\, but through experience. The Davis approach uses clay modelling and real-life activities to make abstract concepts concrete and personally meaningful. This is where understanding actually forms. \n3. Social Integration\nThe ability to connect with others\, read social situations\, and respond flexibly. In Davis\, this stage addresses concepts like Another/Others\, types of relationships\, and a framework for decision-making. It can only develop once Individuation and Identity Development are in place. Trying to build social skills without those foundations is why scripted social responses often don’t generalize. \nWhat this looks like in real life\nFrom behavior to developmental growth: one family’s experience \n \nWhen developmental foundations are strengthened\, behavior no longer needs to be managed\, it begins to evolve naturally. \nYour presenters\nMelanie Curry: Chief Optimization Officer\, Davis International | Director\, Davis Autism International \nMelanie Curry has spent more than 15 years working with neurodivergent individuals of all ages through the Davis Approach®. As Director of Davis Autism International\, she oversees the organization’s global training and licensing from her base in Aotearoa\, New Zealand. A former international educator\, Melanie brings deep practical experience to her roles as Davis Methods Trainer and Workshop Presenter — and a genuine passion for approaches that build real\, lasting change from the inside out. \nAnne Mataczynski: Davis Autism Support Coordinator | Workshop Presenter | Facilitator Trainer \nAnne Mataczynski has been working with autistic individuals through the Davis Approach since 2005. Based in Wisconsin\, she helps families and individuals find the right support\, and presents Davis Autism Approach® Workshops and Davis Concepts for Life® Workshops to parents\, educators\, and professionals across North America. Anne also trains new Davis Autism facilitators and supervises autism trainees\, bringing over two decades of hands-on experience to everything she does. \nRegister free\nThis webinar is free to attend.

SUMMARY:Davis Stepping Stones for Autism - LIVE online - UK Timezone
DESCRIPTION:Are you a dedicated parent\, educator\, therapist\, or caregiver striving to support a child or student facing the challenges of autism? \nDo you long to make their daily experiences less stressful and overwhelming? \nYou can help a young child unlock their knowledge and capabilities with  our specialised Davis Stepping Stones Workshop. This Davis methods course will show you how to assist a child (or children) on the autism spectrum under the age of eight. You will  be able to guide them to increase their self-awareness\, improve  self-regulation\, deal more positively with change\, cope with meltdowns\,  and better understand the world around them – all without losing their beautiful uniqueness.​ \nThe workshop is delivered over 4 three-hour sessions. Up to four hours of additional group mentoring will be provided outside of the workshop sessions\, as needed. \nDates: 8th\, 15th\, 22nd and 29th June. $695 USD \nWorkshop option 1: 9am-12 noon BST \nWorkshop option 2: 6.30-9.30pm BST \nRegister now\n\n\n \nBundle Davis Stepping Stones 1 & 2 – and go further\nThe Davis Stepping Stones workshop gives you the tools to support a young or non-speaking autistic individual through the foundational concepts. Davis Stepping Stones 2 takes that further. \nOnce you’ve completed Davis Stepping Stones\, your child or participant will be ready to explore three deeper concepts that help them make sense of the world around them: \n\nTime — understanding that change can be measured\, and that the world operates on a predictable standard\nSequence — recognising that things follow each other in order\, across five types: time\, size\, amount\, arbitrary order\, and importance\nOrder and Disorder — building the ability to recognise when things are in their proper place\, position\, and condition — and how to restore order when they’re not\n\nThese concepts are explored hands-on\, through clay modelling and real-life experiences. They’re not abstract lessons. They become part of how the participant understands and interacts with daily life. \nFor the helper\, Davis Stepping Stones 2 also introduces additional self-regulation tools\, including Dial-Setting and Koosh ball exercises\, to strengthen both your practice and theirs. \nBundling Davis Stepping Stones 1 and Davis Stepping Stones 2 saves you $200 USD \nBundle price: $1\,050 USD |Davis Stepping Stones 2 workshop dates: Mondays 7th\, 14th\, 21st September time TBC \nComplete the bundle deal registration form and email to autism@davismethod.com \n
