The SenseUp Approach ™ is a trademarked method created by Kerry Evetts, an Occupational Therapist with a Masters degree and extensive clinical experience and advanced training in sensory integration theory and practice.

The SenseUp Approach ™ is used by occupational therapists when providing an OT service to children with sensory challenges.

This approach embodies affirming and child-led interactions with young people, primarily 9 years and under, although still has relevance through the teen years.

Theoretical Foundations

The SenseUp Approach ™ draws on theory from several places including Ayres Sensory Integration (ASI ®), Polyvagal Theory by Stephen Porges, Interoception by Kelly Mahler and others.

Core Features & Values include :

Functional approach encompassing bottom-up and top-down features

Individualised and tailored assessments and interventions guided by the SenseUp Model™ framework.

Supporting a child's intrinsic drive to seek meaning from their environment

Supporting the child's play

Supporting multi-sensory integration on a background of safety

Supporting self-advocacy in all manners of expression

Affirming & tailored assessment process

Family-centred

The SenseUp Approach™ Course is for occupational therapists working in paediatrics.

We focus on a child-led, individualised approach to instil this theory into everyday practice.

NICE TO MEET YOU

I am Kerry

I have identified as a 'sensory' OT since 2008. Although I had already been working as an OT for over a decade, learning about sensory processing created a monumental shift in me as a person and an OT.

I had always liked being an OT but when I started incorporating a sensory lens into my work in paeds I realised I truly loved being an OT. I had never felt as fulfilled and gratified in my work!

Fast forward 15 years with a published Masters thesis (in sensory modulation measures), immigration to Australia, and a life-threatening event - and I discovered my true calling - to teach - about sensory of course!

Now, I use what I've learned over my long and joyful OT career to support and nurture OTs who also want to be sensory-informed and sensory-affirming. I love to show OT's how they can transform their careers and their sensory clients' lives.

I have LOVED my time completing the course and workshop with you and learning alongside every one else. I really feel I have developed my knowledge significantly and can support my team to a higher level. My goal in 2024 was to focus on PD and developing my skills as a therapist. I can confidently say I achieved that goal with SenseUp!

I have been really engaged with the content and feel excited for our fortnightly calls. Being around like-minded OT’s has been refreshing and has reignited my passion for being an OT after almost walking away from the profession a few years ago

This course has transformed my OT service. I now have a far greater understanding of sensory, neuroscience, why kids respond the way that they do, and overall the functional impact of difficulties with sensory processing. I now have a new lens to assess whats happening for kids

As an already accomplished and experienced OT, TSAC has provided me with the missing puzzle pieces to feel confident in assessing and delivering OT services with a true sensory lens. Kerry is a wonderful teacher and I'd recommend this course to any new graduate or experienced therapists.
