Sterling Practice works closely with medical and other allied health professionals, helping them to correctly identify, diagnose and treat children/ young people with Sensory Processing Disorders and Neurodevelopmental delays.

It is of paramount importance that any professionals working with children/ young people should be well versed in SPD and NDT in order to direct them to appropriate treatment pathways. Many developmental conditions often are co-morbid (or exist together) and can present very similarly, but are treated in different ways. It is extremely important that foundational issues are identified properly, and the appropriate treatment pathway selected for the child/young person.
