EP 112 - Sensory Processing Basics for SLPs

In today's episode, I talk about sensory processing basics for SLPs. Currently, the American Occupational Therapy Association recommends that providers use the full term "sensory integration and processing." This refers to how our brain and body use information from sensations to understand the world. This information comes in through our eight sensory systems, which are smell, taste, touch, visual, auditory, proprioceptive, vestibular, and interoception. I also discuss the different types of disordered sensory integration and processing that we might see in our students and some tips to help SLPs.
