Occupational Therapy
Sensory Regulation Group
a social experience for improved sensory-behaviors, focus, and attention
Occupational therapists work closely with children and families incorporating a multi-developmental perspective for dealing with motor coordination, social-emotional, and sensory-behavior concerns. Home Therapy Solutions offers a parent/child sensory group to educate and provide tools to support improved sensory-behaviors, focus, and attention.
Minimum 2 parent/child pairs per class.
Minimum 2 parent/child pairs per class.
Sensing My Body is an interactive 4 session 30 minute class (small group of 2-5 child & parent pairs) to train parent and child in the concepts of sensory regulation from the programs How Does Your Engine Run?®, The Zones of Regulation®, and easy to implement sensory management strategies. You will be able to start implementing these sensory behavior concepts toward improved focused behavior and attention immediately. The group registration is for 1 adult per 1 child age 4 - 5 and 6 - 8 years of age. Refer to additional information below.
Cost per paired child & parent: $20/wk
Format: The class follows a sequential pattern of training week to week with a review at the beginning of each class. A packet will be provided at the first session reflecting course content. Within the structured format, this is a social opportunity for the children as well as for parents to meet other parents addressing similar issues. Subtle adjustments to planned format will be made at time of class based on group needs. Minimum of two pairs per class.
If your child is shy and does not perform the activities with the group, you the parent can still learn the concepts and techniques to implement at home. If you feel your child will not benefit from a group setting at this time due to extreme dysregulation and associated behaviors, or has significant coordination delays, you may want to consider starting with private treatment for a developmental and customized sensory program.
Please:
Registration/Payment/Refunds: Payment is expected in advance of group session start date via secured PayPal, even if your child is a private OT client. If a class is full or there aren't a minimum of two pairs which may result in the class being cancelled, then another class will be offered or a refund will be provided. There are no refunds for missed classes, as I keep the class group size small with low cost to registrant. I will do my best to offer a make-up if there is availability in another class.
Insurance: Clients who receive an OT evaluation and it is determined that a group format would be either solely beneficial or to complement a private therapy program; an invoice for insurance submission would be provided to you at the end of the four week session reflecting attendance dates, group session fee (significantly less than individual session), and the appropriate codes for submission for out-of-network insurance benefits. Insurance reimbursement is not guaranteed. Home Therapy Solutions does not receive insurance payments. Insurance submission is not required in order to participate in groups.
* The more that word gets out to parents and classes fill, the more classes that will be available for alternate options. Invite a friend or two!
Age range of classes may change without notice.

Please:
- make arrangements for your other children as you may be assisting your child with postures, positions, and general safety in the room.
- during this brief group session you will be learning how to implement these strategies at home, so your undivided attention is paramount.
