My 7 year old son has Auditory Processing Disorder, Sensory Processing Disorder and Mixed Expressive, Receptive Language Disorder. He is working really well in mainstream education and wears an FM hearing system in class. Before his diagnosis his behaviour was very difficult, extrememly rigid and anxious and his social skills fell far behind his peers. He has had a very tough time. Accurate diagnosis, Fast ForWord Program, great therapy and a lovely teacher have really helped, however in moving forward in his treatment what new therapies could you recommend? His Audiologist tells me music therapy could be an option... Is there an hospital or university in the US that leads the research in this field? I am looking to get him re evaluated next year, where do you think I should go? Many thanks!
