[QUOTE="confuzzled, post: 538161, member: 8831"] it could also just be a sensory issue. if you are going the spT route for screening, it would be worth asking if its an actual Auditory Processing Disorders (APD) or its sensory--they could probably do some limited testing to get an idea which is which. if its sensory, an Occupational Therapist (OT) evaluation is really important. if you are using a specialized audiologist, they probably wont have much of an idea about sensory issues--i'd still schedule with a good Occupational Therapist (OT) for an evaluation. actually, i'd get an Occupational Therapist (OT) evaluation period. in my opinion, it was one of the best things i ever did for my daughter--it was so comprehensive that i was actually MORE impressed with the testing than i was with a neuropsychologist. we did a short run of therapy that was very targeted (mainly fine motor stuff) and it was well worth it. i actually think its well worth it for just about all of our difficult children ;-) [/QUOTE]
