When every test for your child looks “normal”, but something is off…
Your child hears fine but struggles to understand conversations clearly and consistently
Seems inattentive but is actually trying
Does better with visual supports or visual-based learning
Needs directions repeated several times
You may have been told “They’ll grow out of it.”
They can’t follow the beat of the music or understand the lyrics of their favorite songs
But you still notice that something doesn’t add up. There’s a gap somewhere.
Your child is smart but struggles to follow directions or need things repeated. They work harder than they should just to keep up.
Or, how about this…
Every test you take seems to come back as “fine”, but you can’t communicate like you want to with others.
Social gatherings are exhausting
You asks coworkers or clients to repeat themselves a lot
You feel disconnected from family or friends because you don’t understand them consistently
That’s where I come in.
Hi, I’m audiologist, Dr. Casey Roof. I specialize in auditory processing-how the brain makes sense of hearing.
I work with children, adults, and families who are trying to understand why listening feels harder than it should, especially when everything else seems normal, or other health issues are managed.
Hearing and understanding are not the same thing.
When auditory processing is the missing piece, it can affect
Learning
Confidence
Communication
Academic Progress
Peer relationships
When what you need is clarity, targeted support and the right kind of intervention are key. That’s what Kentucky Sound Foundations was build to provide.
If this sounds like what you or your child is going through-you are not alone.
Start with a Consultation → Determine if testing is needed → Create a plan → Begin targeted support
What patients and families say
Even early in the process of evaluation and intervention, I get feedback like
“I knew that there was something else going on”
“I feel like I understand what is going on now”
“He is trying to read and spell now…that’s a first”
“He ‘s doing so much better, even at home”
And that clarity matters. Once you understand the why in communication struggles, then you can move forward with how to get unstuck in communication struggle loops.
If you’re wondering whether auditory processing could be a factor, the best place to start is a consultation. In that session, we’ll:
Talk through your concerns
Identify whether testing makes sense
Outline clear next steps
🙌 No pressure—just answers
Imagine what could change with the right support?
The KSF Approach
What I Do Differently
I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all recommendations. Every person’s auditory system is different.
That’s why I use:
Comprehensive auditory processing evaluations
Evidence-based frameworks like the Buffalo Model
Individualized therapy plans tailored to you or your child
And because services are provided remotely, families can access care without long travel or waitlists. You don’t have to wait months for answers or travel long distances for care. Everything is designed to meet you or your child where they are—right from home.
I understand what you are going through, and I can help you figure it out, together and forward.
