Frequently Asked Questions — Lake Barrington Families

Is "Sensory Processing Disorder" a real diagnosis?

SPD isn't in the DSM-5 as a standalone diagnosis, but sensory processing differences are widely recognized in occupational therapy and pediatric medicine. They appear with autism, ADHD, anxiety, and as standalone challenges. Whether or not your child has a formal SPD label, we can evaluate and treat sensory differences directly.

My Lake Barrington pediatrician says my child will "grow out of it." Should I wait?

Some sensory differences naturally moderate with age — but if they're affecting your child's daily life NOW (sleep, eating, school, friendships), waiting often means missing the window where intervention is most effective. A free 15-minute consultation can help you decide whether to act.
