Atypical Sensory Processing, Neurodivergence, and Autism
Briefly

Each individual processes sensory information uniquely, influencing their reactions to environments and situations. Atypical sensory profiles contribute to both challenges and strengths in their interactions.
The concept of eight sensory systems—including proprioception, vestibular, and interoception—offers a more comprehensive understanding of how we experience and react to the world.
Occupational therapists emphasize sensory integration as a vital process. It highlights the importance of understanding how different sensory systems interact and can impact an individual's day-to-day functioning.
Challenges such as sensitivity to touch, difficulties in emotional recognition, and routines disruptions underscore the essential role of sensory profiles in shaping the experiences of neurodivergent individuals.
