Kinda chic to turn an unused room into a space that supports regulation 🧠💫

A warm welcome to McKenna, our newest SENSEational Spaces team member! We’re so happy to have her here🤍

Hi everyone! My name is McKenna, I am the newest addition to the SENSE-ational Spaces team as an Assistant Occupational Program Manager!

I completed my Doctorate in Occupational Therapy at the University of Minnesota–Twin Cities. Throughout my career, I have had the opportunity to work with a variety of individuals ranging from infants to older adults. My oldest patient was 102 years old!

My inspiration to become an occupational therapist began at a young age through a family friend who is diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder. Watching her navigate everyday activities sparked my passion for helping others.

Outside of work, I am a new mom! I love spending my time with my son, husband, and our two Australian Shepherds. I enjoy getting outside for walks and hikes, exercising, shopping, and enjoying slow days with a good cup of coffee.

I am so excited to be a part of the SENSE-ational Spaces team and look forward to getting to know all of you!

Sensory support can look different for everyone and it doesn’t always mean a swing or crash pad!

✨A routine alarm clock, weighted stuffed animal, oral motor stimulation kit, LED lights, and tactile fidgets are just a few examples of the individualized tools that can help support regulation, routine, and sensory needs throughout the day.

Pop-its are popular fidgets seen around with all ages!

These are just a few of the many ways a simple Pop-it can be used with children and adults as a versatile tool to support regulation! 💡👉🏻

Adults need sensory tools too 🤍

Sensory support isn’t just for kids. We all have nervous systems that need regulation throughout every stage of life.

Whether you’re navigating stress, burnout, anxiety, or simply trying to recharge after a long day, the right sensory tools can make a meaningful difference!

Here are just some of our favorite adult-friendly sensory supports we’ve incorporated into spaces:

✨ Cooling/heating fan
🎧 Neurofeedback headphones
🌿 Aromatherapy
🪷 Acupressure mat
🫁 Breathing boards
🧠 Mind-body cards
🤲 Sensate relaxation device
🌙 Hammock swing
💪 Foam rollers

And this is only the beginning. Every sensory space we design is individualized because regulation looks different for everyone.

Which of these would you add to your own space?👀
