What is Auditory-Verbal Therapy?
The Auditory-Verbal Philosophy is for people who are deaf or hard of hearing and their families. The primary goal of Auditory-Verbal Therapy is for children who are deaf or hard of hearing to learn to listen and talk, attend their regular school and to become active, contributing, independent members of society. Auditory-Verbal Therapy sessions are conducted in a parent participation format so parents are given the goals, as well as, guidance and information on how to integrate the child’s goals into their daily lives. For more information and a list of the guiding principles of Auditory-Verbal Therapy, please see the Auditory-Verbal section under therapies on this website.
