I highly recommend OT and my son has the same diagnosis. We did 6 months of occupational therapy at our community's children hospital and found that it reduced his problems with touch significantly as well as addressing some of the motor delays that plagued him. While it didn't "fix" everything, three years later, I still think it was one of the best things we ever did for him. We did three hours every Tuesday for 6 months.
