In 2019 Autism Advisory & Support Service hosted Nathan Wallis to a sellout crowd of Professionals & Parents. This July we welcome the inspirational and charismatic Nathan, back to Southwest Sydney in a ONE DAY ONLY event.
Nathan is a grandfather of three, father of three and foster father to many more. His professional background includes early childhood teacher, child therapist, social service manager, university lecturer and neuroscience trainer.
Nathan will be presenting 3 of his talks:
- Change your Brain! Change your Life!
- The Teen Brain
- Anxiety & Depression.
Nathan’s presentations explore how the brain works and how neuroscience can better inform our day to day interactions with children and young people. Information about the human brain (and how it grows to reach full potential) has exploded into our awareness over the past twenty years. The 1990’s were called the ‘decade of the brain’ and advances in scanning technologies allowed us to understand the workings of the brain like never before, showing us the huge significance of the early years and the critical role this period plays in defining later outcomes. These new findings often contradict many of the practices that parents, teachers, and other helping professionals have utilised in the belief that they are helping children. Nathan presents the practical implications of this research with a focus on how to use this knowledge to create better outcomes.
