‘Sharpening Focus’ takes you beyond the basics of matching music to a client’s needs and teaches an understanding of the specific use and application of a variety of electronic modifications of sound. This course will assist the therapist trained in the basics of modulated music to gain a deeper knowledge of how challenges with audition and auditory processing disrupt attention, learning, and praxis. In addition, a new tool, the Forbrain^®, will be introduced for use in Therapeutic Listening^® protocols.
