What is a sensory processing difficulty?

1. In a broad sense, sensory processing disorder can be described as a condition that involves challenges in detecting, regulating, interpreting, and/or responding to sensory stimuli such as sound, visual images, touch, body movement, or taste to the point where it impacts daily functioning.

Types of sensory processing difficulties:

• oversensitivity- discomfort or avoidance

• under sensitivity- seeks out or “obsesses” over

• coordination difficulties- motor difficulties due to challenges with integrating sensory input

• behavioral challenges- difficulty transitioning, outbursts, meltdowns, avoidance
