Sound Therapy utilizing The Listening Program (TLP) ® offers a friendly home program to enhance auditory processing and decrease sound sensitivities. The ideal listening schedule involves fifteen minute home listening sessions two times a day over an extended period of time (minimum of twenty weeks). Adults may listen once a day for 30 minutes over the same extended period of time. To maximize its benefit and support generalized development, it is recommended that this program be used in conjunction with a formal Sensory Diet. Parental completion of the Overview Series is suggested as a prerequisite for this service to help with intepretation of behavior and the creation and use of a Sensory Diet.
Specialized music, a portable music player (either compact disc or digital media) and headphones are required for this program. The cost of this equipment can range from $475 to $1500.

TLP is designed to be used at home throguhout the week, which not only helps to make this an affordable therapeutic intervention, but also allows participants to incorporate the sound therapy into a highly beneficial dialy routine or "Sensory Diet". Upon beginning the program, parents or adult participants will consult briefly with Christy over the phone or by email on a weekly basis. Once a therapeutic level and routine has been achieved, the frequency of consultation is commonly decreased to an as-needed basis.
"The best thing about Christy's approach is that she looks at the whole
child - that made a huge difference for my daughter." Julie W., daughter age 3, Atlanta, read more Sound Therapy Testimonials here |
