[QUOTE="Babbs, post: 69081, member: 3820"] A neuropsychologist did the sensory processing testing? If I were in your position I would find a good occupational therapist and have him tested. Occupational Therapist (OT)'s are the specialists when it comes to sensory processing - unfortunately there are too many neuropsyche's who don't believe in "that sensory integration stuff" and a neuropsychologist is not trained in sensory processing to the extent an occupational therapist is trained. Most neuropscyhologists look for "soft neurological signs" but do not do a full sensory processing profile nor have the training to appropriately interpret the results. An Occupational Therapist (OT) in the school district can test for sensory processing difficulties, but you'll get a much more thorough evaluation if you take him into a pediatric Occupational Therapist (OT) clinic and have an Occupational Therapist (OT) who has specialized training in sensory processing disorders.
