Sensory Processing, Anxiety and Stress

Stress, anxiety and inhibited self-regulation and sensory integration are common causes of challenging behaviours. Students learn about the sensory processing challenges that individuals with ASD may experience, as well as the strategies, tools and programs that can support development in this area. The concepts of stress and anxiety are explored, and learners gain an understanding of how these impact individuals with ASD. Students develop skills to identify the symptoms of anxiety and select appropriate strategies to prevent and respond to anxiety.
