The Listening Brain

De: K. Todd Houston Ph.D. CCC-SLP LSLS Cert. AVT
  • Resumen

  • For most of us, we must be able to listen in order to speak. Put another way, listening plus speaking equals successful communication. Fortunately, for children with hearing loss, listening has become less of a challenge due to the availability of testing that allows early detection of hearing loss and the early use of advanced hearing technology – like hearing aids and cochlear implants. This podcast, The Listening Brain, will celebrate listening and speaking in the context of childhood hearing loss. Hosted by K. Todd Houston, Ph.D., a noted Listening and Spoken Language Specialist Certified Auditory-Verbal Therapist, speech-language pathologist, and Professor, the podcast will explore educational trends, new developments in technology, and advances in research. We will interview professionals in the fields serving a child with hearing loss, and, most importantly, families who are supporting their children on this journey to listening and spoken language success. And, equally, as important, we’ll also hear from adults with hearing loss who will share their unique stories and experiences about growing up with deafness and how deafness is now being redefined for future generations.

  • A Conversation with Claudia Marseille, Abstract Artist & Author!
    Jul 13 2024

    At age four, I was diagnosed with a severe hearing loss. With determination and the help of powerful hearing aids, I learned to hear, speak and lipread with ten years of speech therapy and lipreading training. I was mainstreamed in public schools in Berkeley, CA. After earning master’s degrees in archaeology and in public policy, and finally an MFA, I developed a career in photography and painting, a profession compatible with a hearing loss. I ran a fine art portrait photography studio for fifteen years before becoming a full-time abstract painter. My paintings are represented by the Seager Gray gallery in Mill Valley, CA. and can be seen on my website: www.claudiamarseille.com

    Recently I received the Gold Medal for Best First Book in Non-Fiction from the prestigious Independent Publisher Book Awards (IPPY’s as they are known), a starred review with the Library Journal, and a 5 star rating with Readers’ Favorite. You can find out more about my memoir and where to purchase at my author website: www.claudiamarseilleauthor.com.

    I played classical piano much of my life; in my free time I love to read, watch movies, travel, spend time with friends, and attend concerts and art exhibits. I live with my husband in Oakland and we have one daughter.

  • A Conversation with Louanne Saraga-Walters of Listen Foundation!
    May 23 2024
    As Executive Director of Listen Foundation, Louanne brings more than two decades of nonprofit, fundraising, and executive management experience to the Foundation. She has worked with nonprofits of all sizes and is an experienced fundraising and board governance professional. She is a former Financial Advisor with Raymond James & Associates, and specializes in helping nonprofit organizations build their philanthropic capacity. Louanne and her wife moved from Tampa Bay to Denver in 2019, and fell in love with Colorado. Listen Foundation was incorporated in 1969 when a group of parents came together because they shared the common experience of raising a child with a hearing impairment. These parents recognized that many other parents and professionals were unaware of technological and therapeutic options that enable children with a hearing loss to listen, speak and become part of mainstream society and that many families that might want to pursue these options did not have the financial means to pay for these services. The initial program was developed by the late Doreen Pollack, an internationally recognized author and expert in the field of Listening and Spoken Language therapy (then called acoupedics) – an innovative approach that helps children to use their residual hearing and speaking potential to communicate with spoken language. Since then, Listen Foundation has served hundreds of families with Listening and Spoken Language therapy helping children in Colorado and beyond achieve a life of independence.
