Thanksgiving celebrations are coming soon and we know for some, they may feel pretty overwhelming.
The space can feel too loud, too bright, or just too much...
Sensory sensitivities can be a big part of the autism experience, and they're something we take seriously in ABA therapy. Here's what you need to know:
➡️ Every child's sensory world is unique. What overwhelms one might not bother another.
➡️ Sensory challenges aren't "bad behavior" - they're real responses to how your child experiences the world.
➡️ ABA therapy can help build coping strategies for overwhelming sensory experiences.
➡️ We can guide you in creating a more sensory-friendly home environment.
➡️ Collaboration with occupational therapists often enhances our approach to sensory needs.
➡️ The goal isn't to eliminate sensitivities, but to help your child navigate them more comfortably.
Embracing your child's sensory needs can open up new ways of connecting and understanding. It's all part of the beautiful, complex tapestry that makes your child who they are.
What sensory sensitivity does your child struggle with most?
