Auditory, Noise or Sound Hyper Sensitivity

In this short video Kim Griffin, occupational therapist from GriffinOT, explains what sound sensitivity is and how you can help individuals who experience sensitivity to sounds.
Sensitivity to sounds or noise is a common sensory issue reported by autistic children. This can results in difficulty attending in class and participating in activities where there is a lot of noise (e.g. children's parties, or a trip to the supermarket).
