Or any other listening therapy for auditory processing issues? I'm asking in the you, the adults, vs. parents because I'd like to hear from adults who have tried this or other therapies.

I'm considering it for Tenzin, who is 7.

Not certain i know much about this one. But i am going to bet it is probably based on "retuning you brain waves" via binaral beating ( ie the left and right ears are played seperate tones(sinewaves) that are a few hrtz apart (ie 435 +445 to create a 10htZ wave in the brain). If thAt is what this therapy consists of u can get any number of free apps that will do exactly that. (a program to do this can be thrown together in under 5 min using puredata or max mspNot certain i know much about this one.
