Life comes at you fast. Overwhelm is real.
​
Let's work together to bring peace to your parenting.
​
​
Life is loud. Overwhelm is real. We’re here to help. Parenting a child with unique needs often feels like navigating a world that wasn't built for your family. When "overwhelmed" becomes your daily baseline, peace can feel out of reach. Let’s change that. Together, we will find the sensory solutions needed to quiet the chaos and bring a sense of calm and connection back to your home.
Most therapy focuses either on the mind or the body. Sensory Safe does both. By combining trauma-informed mental health counseling with the foundations of occupational therapy, Susie provides the comprehensive support that sensory-sensitive, adopted, neurodivergent, and other exceptional children need to thrive.
Our work is grounded in evidence-based, heart-centered frameworks—including TBRI, the Nurtured Heart Approach, and SMART™—to help children find regulation and connection.
Susie is an adoption-competent practitioner, certified through the Center for Adoption Support and Education (C.A.S.E.). This elite training ensures that adoptive and foster families receive the highest level of informed, sensitive care.
​
Let us help you unlock a deeper understanding of your child’s world. At Sensory Safe, we use The Sensory Profile™—alongside clinical and parental input—to build a unique blueprint of your child’s sensory needs.
We don’t just identify the "why" behind daily struggles; we provide the "how" for moving forward. Our personalized profiles offer actionable supports and accommodations to help your child thrive in any environment.

Sensory Profile Assessment and Report
​Every child experiences the world differently. At Sensory Safe, we begin by using The Sensory Profile™, a gold-standard assessment that helps us "translate" your child’s unique sensory language. By combining these results with clinical expertise and your own invaluable observations, we create a roadmap tailored specifically to your child. Our goal is to provide the practical supports and environmental shifts needed to turn daily challenges into moments of success.

Customized sensory plans for home and beyond
A Plan That Fits Your Life:
We transform the assessment insights into a sensory plan that is as unique as your child. This isn't a one-size-fits-all checklist; it’s a strategy tailored to your child’s preferences and your family’s actual home and resources. By weaving simple sensory responses into your existing daily rhythms, we help lower stress, improve regulation, and prevent that feeling of "overload" for both you and your child.
Your Partner in Advocacy:
Support shouldn't stop at your front door. Susie is here to collaborate with your child’s entire support system—from school IEP teams, teachers, and other caregivers in your child's life. Together, we will ensure your child has the accommodations they need to thrive in every environment.
​
Customized Strategies for Daily Success:
Using the data from the sensory assessment, we develop a personalized roadmap designed to fit your family’s specific space and lifestyle. Our approach focuses on integrating sensory interventions directly into your child's daily routine. This proactive method is designed to:
​
-
Decrease reactivity and meltdowns.
-
Increase emotional regulation.
-
Prevent sensory overload for the whole family.
