Securely Attached

329. Q&A: Is my child anxious or just sensitive? Or could it be both?


Listen Later

Beyond the Sessions is answering YOUR parenting questions! In this episode, Dr. Rebecca Hershberg and I talk about...

 

  • Regardless of whether your child is experiencing sensory sensitivities or anxiety, our goal is the same - helping you define exactly what that goal is.

  • Where do anxiety and sensory sensitivities overlap? (Spoiler: A lot of this boils down to nervous system regulation.)

  • How you can help your child understand what their unique triggers are and the tools and strategies that can help them navigate these without so much distress.

  • What to consider to help you if it’s time for an intervention, like occupational therapy, parenting support, individual therapy for your child.
