Auditory Processing Disorder- Understanding a Team Approach to Differential Diagnosis for Children with Selective Mutism and Other Anxiety Disorders
Recorded: August 24, 2022
Speakers: Brittany Bice-Urbach, PhD, Hayden Engstrom, Au.D, Ken Grizzle, PhD, Kary Mirasola, MS, CCC-SLP & Jessica Yoder, Au.D, CCC-A
Geared toward speech-language pathologists, counselors, psychologists and occupational therapists.
Description: The audiological results of APD testing have an important place in differential diagnosis of auditory processing deficits. In this session, the speech language pathologist, audiologist, and two psychologists will share how they unite their individual and collaborative findings to reach a differential diagnosis in kids with selective mutism and other comorbid and coexisting conditions. Attend this webinar and you will be able to:
• Describe the key features of the different types of an Auditory Processing Disorder (APD), as defined and diagnosed by an audiologist
• Acknowledge the importance of how an interdisciplinary team must work collaboratively to differentially diagnose ADHD, language and learning disabilities, and anxiety.
• Identify symptoms that can co-occur in diagnoses that have auditory processing deficits.
