Some children are hypersensitive or under-sensitive to certain sensory stimuli.

Perhaps you notice that your child is more sensitive than others? You may be searching for how best to help your child feel better about himself. You may be wondering where the behavior is coming from and how you can help your child.

In our knowledge base you will find a wide range of articles written by me, orthopedagogue (specializing in stimulus processing problems) about stimulus processing (and stimulus processing problems), ADHD and autism.

The knowledge base below is divided into a number of categories under which you will find various articles. Where applicable, you will also find links in the articles to relevant blogs on our website.
