Some kids, however, struggle with our eighth, very unknown sense, called interoception.
Interoception is critical to feel and understand what is going on inside of your body and when a child has difficulty processing interoception, knowledge and regulation of basic body functions (and emotions) can be interrupted causing great frustration.

If you need help and advice on how to best go about potty training your child, or assess if he/she may have difficulties with interoception, contact Tara for an evaluation and treatment plan.
