#23: The Benefits of Occupational Therapy with Liz Lombard
Manage episode 390427290 series 3494696
As an occupational therapist, Liz has worked with young children who had a variety of sensory processing challenges, and found it fulfilling to help them and their families navigate all the parts of their day— getting dressed, brushing teeth and hair, eating, going to school, participating in the classroom.
When COVID hit and Liz found herself daydreaming about planning trips for my own family, she realized that she could help families plan trips and outings in a way that would yield the most successful and enjoyable memories possible!
Through coaching, she works with you to focus on identifying specific sensory needs, selecting and implementing thoughtful sensory strategies, finding the best tools to support your children, and then finding ways to reuse successful sensory strategies for trips and special events.
In this episode, Liz talks to us about:
What sensory processing disorder is.
How sensory processing affects emotional regulation.
Overstimulation as a parent and how to meet your own sensory needs.
Why mornings are stressful and how to navigate them.
How journaling may help you spot patterns....and more!
