Tactile hypersensitivity (tactile defensiveness) is a sensory processing difference where the brain overreacts to light touch—interpreting it as overwhelming, uncomfortable, or even painful.

This is why some children may struggle during sensory inputs like the Wilbarger brushing protocol.

Everyday sensations such as clothing tags, grooming, or unexpected touch can trigger distress, leading to:
• Difficulties with personal care (hair brushing, teeth brushing, dressing)
• Challenges in social interactions due to touch aversion
• Sensory overload from constant or unexpected touch

Understanding the sensory system helps us respond with support—not force.

In Speech Therapy, we focus on helping children communicate meaningfully in everyday situations.

Our goals include:
• Choice making – encouraging children to express preferences through simple questions like “Do you want X or Y?”
• Functional communication – building skills such as requesting, commenting, and initiating interactions.
• Play development – using play to model social interaction, turn-taking, and language growth.
• Sentence formation – developing simple sentences like “I want ___” and gradually increasing complexity.
• Verbalising wants – teaching effective ways to ask using phrases like “I want…”, “May I have…”, along with pointing and naming.

We achieve this through:
• Modeling and expanding language
• Play-based activities
• Visual supports such as pictures and choice boards

Because communication grows best when learning feels natural, engaging, and fun.
