Auditory Processing Evaluation

Some people hear sounds clearly but still struggle to make sense of speech, especially in background noise, groups, classrooms, or fast-moving conversations. An auditory processing evaluation looks at how the brain uses sound, not just whether the ears detect it.

This evaluation may be helpful for children or adults who:

• frequently ask for repetition

• struggle to follow spoken directions

• have trouble understanding speech in background noise

• feel mentally tired after listening

• passed a hearing screening but still have listening concerns

• have speech, language, learning, or attention concerns where listening may be part of the picture

  
  

What to Expect

Your evaluation will include a combination of hearing testing, speech-in-noise testing, auditory processing measures, questionnaire, and a conversation about real-world listening concerns.

After the visit, you will receive clear recommendations, next steps and a educational report to share with schools as needed. These may include communication strategies, classroom or workplace accommodations, listening therapy, hearing technology, referral coordination, or follow-up care.
