How can I help my child overcome auditory processing disorder?

Of course, following your doctor's treatment plan and following through with any therapy is the most important part of helping your child. In addition, modifying the home and school environments to make them less chaotic and noisy is one way to help your child overcome auditory processing disorder. Help your child recognize situations in which listening will be difficult-for example, noisy parties-and develop strategies to cope with these situations. If your child has trouble following or remembering instructions, writing lists or notes, and developing other organizational skills, may be helpful.
