Sensory Processing

When the world feels too loud, too bright, or too much

Sensory processing difficulties affect how children receive and respond to information from their environment. For some children, everyday sensations — clothing tags, background noise, unexpected touch — can feel overwhelming. Occupational therapy can help.

Quick answer

Does my child have sensory processing disorder?

Sensory processing difficulties exist on a spectrum. Many children have sensory sensitivities without a formal diagnosis. If your child is frequently overwhelmed by sensory input, avoids certain textures or sounds, or seeks intense sensory experiences, an OT evaluation can help identify what's happening and what helps.

Signs your child may have sensory processing difficulties

These are common signs — not a diagnosis. If several apply to your child, an OT evaluation is a good next step.

Covers ears in response to everyday sounds
Refuses to wear certain clothing or textures
Avoids messy play, sand, or certain foods
Seeks intense physical input — crashing, spinning, jumping
Overwhelmed in busy or loud environments
Difficulty with transitions or unexpected changes
Unusually high or low pain tolerance
Meltdowns that seem disproportionate to the situation
