Supporting children’s sensory needs for success at home, school, and play

Presented by Margarita Gomez, MS, OTR/L, ATMHP, RPF-I, an Occupational Therapist with 25 years of experience supporting the development of young children and their families.

Children with disabilities such as autism spectrum disorder (ASD), ADHD, and other developmental challenges process and respond differently to the information they receive from their senses, which can affect a child’s learning, socialization, and emotional well-being.

In this webinar video recording, you will:
Understand sensory differences in children, including those with autism (ASD) and other developmental conditions.
Learn how sensory processing and regulation impact learning, daily participation, and behavior.
Grow your understanding of sensory-integrative therapy and how it can help a child with sensory differences
