APD therapy sessions typically involve structured activities designed to strengthen specific areas of auditory processing identified during your evaluation. An audiologist will guide you through exercises that target your individual challenges, whether that's decoding speech sounds, understanding speech in noise, remembering auditory information, or integrating sounds from both ears. Sessions may include computer-based activities, listening exercises with headphones, or interactive tasks that provide immediate feedback. The audiologist adjusts difficulty levels throughout the session to keep you challenged but not overwhelmed, ensuring therapy remains effective and engaging.
