About the Workshop
Dr. Miller’s specialities include intervention for children and adults with Sensory Processing Disorder and related neurobehavioral disorders, and parent education related to raising a child with sensory and developmental issues. The major objective of this presentation is to update parents, providers, teachers and others on the evidence suggesting that occupational therapy with a sensory integration approach is effective. In order to accomplish this, characteristics of the three classic patterns of Sensory Processing Disorder will be explained.
