What Can Be Done About Sensory Processing Issues?
Here we discuss important sensory processing issues for parents and caregivers to become aware of, and what can be done about them, so that they can better help children .
In this interview we address many questions parents ask such as:
What are the different types of sensory processing disorders that a person can have?
What can be done about it?
Who helps with these issues?
How does a parent or individual contact them?
How to work with schools and teachers.
What are Epraxia and dyspraxia?
Please also read my posts Sensory Processing Disorders, and Autism Speech Therapy, for more information.

Good information. Thank you for doing this. After being in this field for 18yrs. I have mostly been frustrated for myself and other families that are dealing with sensory problems. Many classes that I have gone to hoping for any new information to help my family or clients I work with have been useless. I ha e seen parents walk away with nothing but unanswered questions and hopelessness. This information gives understanding and solutions. Thank you again
