Eps 427: Understanding sensory processing & neurodiversity with Natasha Nelsen

My guest today is Natasha Nelsen and I am so honored to be in conversation with her today. 

Natasha breaks down sensory processing disorder, ADHD and other neurodiversity in adolescents and adults. She talks about how parents can support teens during this time of sensory overload, sensory seeking behavior, and executive function challenges. Natasha’s support & educational opportunities for black neurodiverse families and her deep understanding of sensory needs offers insights and understanding for all parents, caregivers and teachers who love and work with neurodiverse youth.
