We offer Berard Auditory Integration Therapy (AIT) and The Listening Program (TLP) as part of auditory/ sound training methods.
WHAT IS AIT/ AUDITORY INTEGRATION TRAINING?
Auditory Integration Training efficiently retrains a disorganized auditory system and improves hearing distortions and sound sensitivity. Berard AIT is an educational intervention with over 30 years of scientific research and 28 clinical studies. Participants listen through headphones to modulated music on an auditory integration training device for 20 sessions of 30 minutes each, for a total of 10 listening hours, over 10 (or 12) consecutive days, under the direct supervision of a Berard AIT Practitioner. There are NO "at home" programs or "CD's for home use" ever approved for use with the scientific Berard AIT protocol.Read more.
WHAT IS TLP/ THE LISTENING PROGRAM?
TLP is Music-Based Auditory Stimulation® to improve auditory processing, listening, learning, and communication. TLP’s clinically-proven approach gently trains the auditory system to accurately process sound.
When auditory perception is distorted—whether through illness, injury, developmental or other challenges—auditory processing problems can lead to academic, emotional, cognitive and social challenges, including problems with the following:
•
Attention and concentration
•
Listening
•
Speech and language
•
Memory
•
Communication
•
Social skills
•
Reading
•
Sensory integration
•
Self regulation
•
Physical balance and coordination
•
Vocal performance and musical ability
