Module III: Intervention of Sensory and Motor Issues in Individuals with Asperger’s Syndrome

Summary

Person’s with Asperger’s Syndrome have a whole host of needs and sensory integration is only one of the many intervention approaches that can benefit this population. They often require other interventions including behavioral therapy, vision therapy, speech and language therapy, social skill building, psychological and neuropsychological intervention, and academic assistance. It is important that the therapists, caregivers, doctors, and educators work together as a team to improve the lives of persons with people with Asperger’s Syndrome. Intervention ideas and activities can be shared and reinforced. It is also important to remember that the person with Asperger’s Syndrome themselves and the family are the most important and vital part of intervention; we are merely guides in their journey of life.
