Ready for an information-packed episode on a controversial topic? This one is for you. Dr. Mike Wolff is here to talk through the ins and outs of central auditory processing disorder. If you’re like me, CAPD has come up so many times over the years in your practice, yet the research is mixed on the validity of the diagnosis. Mike presents a thoughtful and compelling case for considering CAPD as a “thing,” and there’s a lot to take from this episode. These are some of the topics that we discussed:

• Definition of CAPD
• Who can (or should) diagnose CAPD?
• How is CAPD similar and different to existing diagnoses like ADHD, language disorders, and autism spectrum disorders?
• What are the available treatments for CAPD?

I earned my undergraduate degree in Experimental Psychology from the University of South Carolina before getting my Master’s and PhD in Counseling Psychology from Colorado State University. These days, I specialize in psychological and neuropsychological evaluation with kids and adolescents.
