Have you noticed your child having outsized reactions to changes in their environment? Does your child seem to have an aversion to light, noise, or certain fabrics or textures? Are you constantly being crashed into by your child who doesn’t seem to have a sense of where they end and other people begin? If so, your child might have sensory processing disorder or SPD. In this episode Dr. Nanika Coor breaks down SPD—what it is, how it can affect kids, how it’s treated, and what parents can do at home to help their SPD kiddo. 

Project Parenthood is hosted by Dr. Nanika Coor. A transcript is available at Simplecast.
