Autism & Hearing

Do you or your autistic child...

  • Cover ears or meltdown at everyday sounds (vacuum, sirens, crowds)?

  • Seem to "tune out" or struggle to focus in noisy places?

  • Misunderstand speech or find certain voices painfully grating?

  • Crave loud noises or constantly seek auditory stimulation?

Sound isn't just sound for us. Auditory processing differences can turn the world into an overwhelming – or underwhelming – sonic landscape, impacting comfort, learning, focus, and connection.

Stop feeling helpless against the noise. Watch and discover actionable strategies and feel validated.

In this session, you'll learn:

  • What is going on

  • How to Silence the Screech: Identify and minimize trigger sounds that cause pain or panic (oversensitivity).

  • Unlock Focus: Cut through background noise so your child can hear what really matters.

  • Deploy Calming Tools: Discover effective sensory tools

  • Understand & Advocate: for your own and your child's reactions

Delivered by an autistic person who gets it!
