PSYCHOLOGICAL CARE FOR PATIENTS WITH HEARING AND SPEECH DISORDERS

A psychological consultation is recommended as an addition to a medical visit. Some hearing and speech problems have psychological basis, although we are not always aware of it. In order to meet the needs of patients, the Centre of Hearing and Speech Medincus offers comprehensive psychological care.

We offer psychological and psychotherapeutic assistance for children and adults:

– consultations for parents and caregivers of people with hearing and speech disorders,

– psychological counselling,

– stress management training,

– assistance in crisis situations.

Most of all we are focused on helping children with communication disorders, including hearing and speech disorders. We are experienced in diagnostics and therapy of communication difficulties of various etiologies – SLI (Specific Language Impairtment), pervasive developmental disorders (autism, Asperger’s syndrome), emotionally- based communication disorders (social anxiety, selective mutism), developmental disorders of scholastic skills (difficulties in learning how to read and write, arithmetic), intellectual disabilities.

We also help the children and youth (+ their families) in the diagnotics and treatment of the other developmental disorders and difficulties, including:
