      Tomatis-based Listening Programs

Brain Works offers both home-based and center-based auditory training programs. Home-based programs are available for people who are unable to come to the center for listening training. Individualized programs are developed after an initial evaluation for listening acuity, auditory processing disorders and attention deficits with questionnaires, an interview and, when possible, testing.

For clients who are capable, we include visual-motor-balance training and some cognitive training while clients are listening. In addition to auditory training, we have a separate Brain Training Program. Tutoring is also offered at Brain Works.

Diane Daniels, M.A., Ed.S., Director of Brain Works, is a certified teacher, school counselor and school psychologist with 24 years experience working at the elementary, high school and community college levels. She has been trained in the Tomatis Method, the LiFT, the Dynamic Listening System, Integrated Listening System (iLs), JoEE, and The Listening Program (TLP).

As a bit of background, Diane conducted her first listening training program at a school where she worked with five children, who were “falling between the cracks”. The music-based sound stimulation created remarkable improvements in the children’s attention span, auditory processing, academic skills, sensory integration and self-confidence. As a result, Diane opened her Center for Listening & Learning in 2001. In 2008, Diane added a brain training program and renamed her center Brain Works. She says, “The center has been a real gift in my life, as I am able to participate in promoting the growth of children, teens and adults in ways they never imagined possible”.
