September 23, 2006 (Press Release) --
Sensory processing disorder is a disorder that affects 5% of the general population. Auer Educational Services, LLC announces the launch of its website – www.spdresources.com to help these children and their families. Visitors may sign up for a free monthly newsletter. Articles have featured tips from the ‘Frugal Occupational Therapist’, suggestions to elicit the involvement of fathers, and information on how to obtain appropriate support from schools and centers of care.
Also featured is a preview of Parenting a Child with Sensory Processing Disorder: A Family Guide to Understanding and Supporting Your Sensory-Sensitive Child (Christopher R. Auer, MA with Susan L. Blumberg, Ph.D., New Harbinger Publications, December 2006). This is possibly the first book to provide information on the care of a child with sensory processing disorder, while supporting the family as a whole, making sure siblings, the marriage and fathers receive they attention they need.
In raising children with or without special needs, nothing is more important than the family unit. This book will enable you to enhance your child’s sensory development. Additionally, it will help you ensure that your child and all family members not only survive, but, indeed, THRIVE! When your whole family thrives, you can best ensure your child’s optimum development over the short and long range of life.

Auer and Bloomberg have lent their insight, passion, and compassion to this workbook. In so doing they have also provided a guidebook—and a preamble of advocacy for children and their families.

It has been said that a family of five is akin to five people lying side-by-side on a waterbed: whenever one person moves, everyone feels the ripple. A child with sensory processing disorder can have a devastating impact upon the day-to-day functioning of a family. There are several books available that provide data and information on the nature of this puzzling disorder, but Auer and Blumberg have written a valuable book that finally provides parents with specific strategies and practical solutions to the daily challenges faced by these special children and their families. While other books define the problem, Auer and Blumberg offer techniques to minimize the effect of the disorder on the child's daily life. I strongly recommend this book to any adult who is parenting a child with a sensory processing problem—and to the professionals who are assisting moms and dads on this challenging journey.
