The Out-of-Sync Child

The Out-of-Sync Child is a term often used to describe children who experience sensory processing issues, making it difficult for them to interpret and respond appropriately to sensory information from their environment. This can result in challenges with coordination, attention, emotional regulation, and behavior. These children might be overly sensitive or under-responsive to sounds, touch, or other sensations, leading to frustration or anxiety. Treatments typically involve therapies that help them better organize and process sensory input, improving their ability to function comfortably and confidently in daily life.
