Poet,
I've been following these new developments with interest because as you know, I work with kids with special needs, including kids with sensory integration difficulties. (We call that SI btw so I get confused here sometimes.) I see how hard it is for these kids to just be in their environment without getting overwhelmed. If you do have some sensitivity in this area I'm sure it was magnified a thousand times by your brother.
I'm not sure how I'd feel about my therapist comparing me to anyone else. I have this funny reaction to that kind of thing, I always take it as a negative comparison. But it doesn't sound like that is what she is doing. Have you asked her why she suddenly sees so many similarities?
And no worries about being old enough to be this kid's mom -- maybe your therapist was a teen mom?? :)
