This training is designed to be a tool to help parents and caregivers understand the sensory systems and how to manage hypersensitivity or hyposensitivity to sensory input. The training focuses on the child as a whole person as we explore sensory issues, sensory modulation, emotional modulation, and the relationship between the sensory system, emotional systems, and behavior.
