Speaker Bio: Dr. Angela Loucks Alexander, Audiologist, has spent fifteen years specializing in diagnosing and treating Auditory Processing Disorder (APD), a hearing difficulty with less to do with the ears and more to do with the brain. Despite significantly affecting potential and well-being, many of those affected are unaware of the condition, let alone their treatment options. Angela is only the second Audiologist to ever give a TEDx talk and has given the first to speak on Auditory Processing Disorder. Her talk "Escaping the Hidden Prison of Auditory Processing Disorder" was the most-watched TEDx worldwide in September 2021. She is the host of the Between Two Ears podcast and founder of Auditory Processing Institute, where she trains audiologists and speech-language pathologists to provide APD services. She has also created an online, searchable map to help clients find the help they need at APDsupport.com.
