It's Not That Loud

Dr. Jan Bedell • 20 June 2021

Real pain is experienced when the sensory system is on overload. In this episode, Jan Bedell, Little Giant Steps’ Brain Coach, will discuss with guest NeuroDevelopmentalist, Ruth Young, the challenges experienced when the brain hears too much. They will also discuss “tonal processing” issues where the brain mishears what is sent to the ear from outside input. Children with this issue often think you said one thing, but you really said something different. Imagine how hard it is to navigate through a world that at times sounds like a foreign language. Come find help for these frustrating situations.
