Speech Dude & Jessie Ginsburg
About this episode

This week we’re going to be talking about our top tips for sensory seekers. This term is becoming more widely known (yay!) but it’s important to make sure we are all on the same page when we are talking about sensory seekers. On this week's episode of Making the Shift, we’re going to be discussing what a sensory seeker looks like, how to support sensory seekers in a variety of settings, and what not to do! If you're a parent or professional and want to learn more about supporting sensory needs to build communication, check out Jessie's Sensory-Communication Programs at www.sensoryslp.com
