Auditory Processing Disorder & Sound Sensitivity: Pioneering Hope With Low-Gain Hearing Aids With Dr. Rae Stout
What does sound sensitivity and auditory processing disorder look like in real life for a family? Possibly melt-downs, hurting relationships, walking on eggshells, avoiding fun outings, attention struggles, social skill struggles, sleep difficulties, reading issues... the list goes on.
Wait! Before you say "My kid hears just fine" or "My hearing is ok..." This is often an unidentified source of defiance, conflict, reading, social & attention difficulties... and more. You really might be surprised!
Dr. Rae Stout joins me in this episode as we dive into APD & hearing sensitivites.
- she helps us understand what APD, misophonia, and hyperacusis are in the first place
- we discuss the real impacts we've seen in the home
- she shares how she's pioneering the effective use of low-gain hearing aids to make life-changing functional impacts that affect whole families
- we talk about other treatment options and how they fit in
...and with an element of surprise and humor in the middle.
The impacts include academics but reach far beyond. Functional listening difficulties impact family dynamics and can make even normal daily tasks feel monumentally hard... whether it's a kid or a grown-up who struggles-- or both!
Dr. Rae Stout is a neurodivergent audiologist and mom of an AuDHD son, sharing both autism and ADHD diagnoses. She is a pioneer in the use of low-gain hearing aids for children and adults with normal or near-normal hearing who struggle with functional listening. Her specialties include auditory processing disorder, hyperacusis, tinnitus, and misophonia, with a focus on supporting children with autism, ADHD, and PDA profiles. Dr. Rae brings a neurodivergent-affirming approach to her work, combining clinical expertise with lived experience to help families create calmer, more accessible environments.
