Understanding Your Child’s Sensory Needs with Laura Petix

If your child seems to have big reactions to sounds, textures, clothing, food, transitions, or everyday experiences, sensory processing may be playing a bigger role than you realize.In this episode, I’m joined by occupational therapist Laura Petix, from The OT Butterfly and author of The Sensory Code.We talk about how parents can better understand their child’s unique sensory needs, recognize what may be happening underneath challenging behavior and big emotions, and respond with more empathy and less frustration.Laura also shares practical ways we as parents can help accommodate our child’s sensory issues while empowering them to help themselves. Pre-order Laura’s new book, The Sensory CodeWhen you pre-order, you’ll also receive three special bonuses from Laura.***This podcast episode is sponsored by NOCD.
