Connecting Neuro and Sensory Thinking in Clinical Practice
NeuroSensory Nexus is a collaborative learning space led by Dr Sylvia Taylor-Goh and
Dr Debbie Bethlehem. Their training offers a unique opportunity to explore the intersection of neurological rehabilitation and sensory integration, with a strong focus on real-world clinical practice. It’s a space for shared reflection, practical tools, and meaningful learning across disciplines.
Vestibular-Related Communication Condition (VCC)
Communication can be affected by vestibular difficulties, leading to a condition known as Vestibular-Related Communication Condition (VCC). Identified through clinical practice and ongoing research, VCC is a distinct and under-recognised condition that can impact all forms of communication. This includes difficulties with information processing, comprehension, spoken language, written expression, reading, and non-verbal communication.
When unrecognised, VCC can create or worsen communication challenges -particularly when cognitive impairments are also present. Early recognition is essential for accurate diagnosis, effective support, and meaningful intervention.
