Putting the Co Back in Regulation
An invitation to reframe the way you view and support your child’s sensory needs
My Philosophy
This isn’t the traditional approach to occupational therapy or sensory support for children.
Through the Sensory + Sol framework, I believe that sensory processing develops within the context of safe attachment relationships.
It can be challenging, confusing, and isolating to raise a child with sensory needs. They need your sturdiness to regulate and participate more than other children do. And what they need may be more than you can offer them right now. This is not a parenting failure. This is your nervous system needing support before you can support your child.
Your nervous system flexibility helps to create the conditions for your child’s regulation skills to develop through co-regulation. And I’m here to help you discover what may be impacting your own regulation capacity and share tools to shift out of dysregulation.
I look at sensory needs in a broader lens. A relational lens. One that believes that your nervous system is an integral part of your child’s sensory environment.
Before I ask the question “what sensory supports does this child need to regulate themselves?”, I ask “are they oriented to adults who can help them develop foundational regulation skills?”
