- Lack of focus, especially in noisy surroundings
- Impaired memory for nursery rhymes or song lyrics
- Struggling with reading, spelling, speaking, or rhyming
- Mixing up the order of sounds in words or numbers in a sequence
- Inability to follow conversations
- Trouble expressing thoughts and feelings clearly
In this episode Alex and Dr. J., long time colleagues and co-authors on several peer reviewed journal articles on auditory hypersensitivity and treatment explore auditory processing disorders; what happens when the brain doesn’t understand what it hears, and what to do about it. Listen and learn:
- How to differentiate auditory processing, a language disorder, and ADHD
- How APD should be assessed
- Categories of APD and general treatment recommendations
