A groundbreaking guide to managing the emotional and behavioral
components of your child’s sensory processing challenges Imagine
having the flu, while lying in a bed of ants, listening to heavy
metal at high volume, and trying to do calculus. Now consider
living in that body all the time. It becomes easy to understand how
kids with difficulties processing and controlling sensory
information can become avoidant, anxious, impatient, irritable, or
oppositional. If you have a child who has a sensory regulation
issue, you may find yourself confused or frustrated by their
behavior. This book will help you understand your child’s
behavior, as well as the root cause of their emotional outbursts,
and provides an arsenal of tools to help your child self-regulate.
This book addresses the often-overlooked connection between sensory
sensitivity and emotional and behavioral issues, which can often
lead to a diagnosis of attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder
(ADHD), an anxiety disorder, or a host of other disorders of
childhood. You’ll gain a better understanding of how your
child’s sensory sensitivity affects how they feel and act, and
also learn powerful sensory regulation skills to help your child
manage their emotions and improve relationships with family and
friends. Whether your child has been diagnosed with sensory
processing disorder (SPD), ADHD, obsessive-compulsive disorder
(OCD), oppositional defiant disorder (ODD), generalized anxiety
disorder (GAD), or autism spectrum disorder (ASD), you’ll find
proven-effective tips and strategies for dealing with the sensory
sensitivity that drives your child’s emotions and behavior, and
discover ways to ease tension in your home caused by your child’s
disorganization, oppositional behavior, refusal to eat, disruptive
behavior, and anxiety. Parenting can be challenging even when
behavior is predictable and age-appropriate, and when a child has a
nervous system that is dysregulated, it is even more so. With this
book, you will not only learn to understand your child’s
behaviors, but will also learn sensory regulation skills to help
your child—and your family as a whole—find some much-needed
balance.
