A parent asks our group: Looking for some guidance. We have started working with an OT. Our daughter is 2.5 hypersensitive to sound and vestibular input. Our OT has a very bubbly and excitable (loud) personality. I am discussing this with her via email and she advised that she was actually trying to tone it down today LOL. Our daughter was afraid to work with her. She understands this and will support us in transitioning to a new OT if thats what we want. I am not so sure. On one hand, Im thinking maybe it would be good for our daughter to have to gradually befriend someone who is naturally loud. On the other hand, building a trusting relationship between OT and child is the first important step in this process and I wonder if this will interfere in future if she has to deal with the challenge of the loud voice as well as the other things she may be challenged with during OT. looking for insight from those who understand the whole process a bit better than I do. Thanks.
