Summary

It was our great joy to share conversation with Susan Masie & Danielle Carder. Both women are pediatric occupational therapists at Pediatric Therapies and wise guides who have been supporting kids and families for decades. We talked about what sensory hurdles look like, the connection between sensory struggles and anxiety and some best practices for parents of young children. However, the conversation we shared around regulation could be useful for any aged child or adolescent (or adult for that matter). This will likely be an episode you will want to have a pen and paper nearby to take notes and go back to the ideas recommended by these two wise voices. . . . . .
