Interoception—the ability to notice, interpret, and respond to internal body signals—is a foundational skill for self-regulation and emotional awareness. Based on the work of occupational therapist Kelly Mahler, this introductory session will provide an overview of the Interoception Assessment and its role in understanding student behavior. Participants will learn how interoceptive awareness impacts regulation, behavior, and learning, and how assessment results can be used to guide meaningful, school-based interventions.
