Excellent Radio Program Discussing Auditory Processing Disorder

Wednesday, November 12, 2008 - Labels: , , - 0 Comments

I came across a great radio interview that I wanted to share. It is an interview with Donna Geffner, PhD who is the Director of Graduate Programs in Speech Language Pathology and Audiology at St. John's University in NY and Deborah Ross-Swain who is the Clinical Director and CEO of Swain Center for Listening, Communicating, and Learning. It is absolutely worth the 30 minutes especially if your child is newly diagnosed or if you suspect they may have Cental Auditory Processing Disorder. It was Dr. Geffner that diagnosed my son with APD.

The web address is www.blogtalkradio.com/search/CAPD

They are discussing their new book called "Auditory Processing Disorders: Assessment, Mangement, and Treatment." They pretty much cover everything from explaining the hearing process, red flags, academic and social success, to management strategies, remediation and therapies.

Please return to post you comments after you have a chance to listen to it. I would love to know what you think.
