Ep. 96 When to Desensitize vs Accommodate Sensory Needs
Update: 2025-03-13
Description
Are we expecting kids to “tough it out”… when they really need support?
If you’ve ever wondered whether you should help a child adjust to sensory challenges or adjust the environment to support them, you’re not alone.
Sensory overwhelm, meltdowns, and shutdowns aren’t random—they’re a direct response to an environment that isn’t working for a neurodivergent brain.
But how do we actually create spaces that feel safe and supportive?
That’s exactly what we’re tackling on this episode of Making the Shift!
