Comment from the January 2006 conference: A Nonlinear Dynamics Approach to Sensory Modulation - "Excellent conference! Your depth of knowledge and passion is inspirational. I left there with new ideas and motivation to develop a new and improved sensory focus on our unit. I even signed up for an online introduction course to aromatherapy - I got my first lesson today!

A sampling of participant feedback from the 2-day January 2007 Course:
A Nonlinear Dynamic Approach to Sensory Modulation
Presenter: Tina Champagne, M.Ed., OTR/L
Tina
Champagne was excellent, knowledgable, passionate and is a true gift to
our profession! I am definitely interested in following Tina’s work and
furthering my knowledge. Very interested in more conferences/trainings.
- Crystal Baglini, MOT, OTR/L
As
someone who is not an OT or familiar with the discipline, Tina’s
presentation material and content fueled a real curiosity and
understanding that there is a very rich and beneficial knowledge and
techniques that would greatly help the clients I work with. She
provided a great balance between educational slides and experiential
content. Her friendly approach and non-jargon filled language made this
material accessible and easy to understand.
- Ann Neill, LICSW
Tina
Champagne is inspiring in her leadership and in brining this work to
inpatient psychiatry as well as clear and well-organized in her
presentation. I would recommend this seminar to all inpatient mental
health practitioners.
- Debra T. Spragg, LMHC
Tina
is not only well versed, presents information in an understandable
manner and allows for experiential opportunities but is also inspiring
and provides the challenge to apply the knowledge with best practice. I
have become motivated to explore the nonlinear dynamic approach more.
- Desna Ratcliff, MS, OTR
Tina
Champagne is an expert on this topic, passionate, professional,
approachable, innovative, and confident, a leader and inspiring. She
provides education and practical application A - Z. Looking forward to
your next workshops.

I’m
very excited to go and share my ideas with a wide variety of
individuals in my hospital. This course is what I needed to revive my
energy to advocate for OT! Thank You!
- Amanda Martinage, OTR/L
Tina
is an inspiration, extremely knowledgable and an excellent presenter! I
am looking forward to learning more about sensory modulation and to
future conferences with you!
- Jesse Robbins, MS, OTR/L
Anyone
practicing in mental health, no matter what practice model/frame of
reference, needs to attend this conference! This is the future outlook
of person-centered practice for mental health! - Shanese Shanlkin, MOT, OTR/
