Sensory Systems and the Brain: The Auditory, Vision, and Primitive Reflex Triad Patti Andrich, MA, OTR/L, COVT, FNAP | Optometric Vision Therapist, Occupational Therapist The Vision Development Team Hosted by Alex Doman, Founder and CEO Advanced Brain Technologies 📅 Wednesday, February 25, 2026 | 60 Minutes 🕒 1:00 PM ET | 12:00 PM CT | 11:00 AM MT | 10:00 AM PT 📍 Live on Zoom The way a person listens, sees, moves, and orients in their body shapes how they engage with the world. These processes develop together, not separately, and they continue to influence regulation, coordination, learning, and emotional balance throughout life. This free live webinar focuses on a specific and powerful relationship. Patti Andrich will help you understand how auditory processing, visual function, and primitive reflex patterns work together to support posture, balance, visual efficiency, attention, and flexible responses to daily demands. Primitive reflexes are early movement patterns that guide the organization of neurological development. Auditory input plays a central role in how these reflexes integrate and mature. Vision relies on both systems to stabilize gaze, coordinate movement, and support efficient processing. When these systems work in harmony, the brain organizes information more easily and consistently. This discussion brings clarity to how these three systems influence one another and why supporting auditory processing often has broad and meaningful effects across visual, motor, and emotional domains. It offers a cohesive framework for understanding integration rather than isolated skills. In This Session, You Will Learn How auditory processing influences visual stability, coordination, and reflex integration What primitive reflexes are and how they affect posture, balance, and attention How vision depends on both auditory input and movement-based foundations How The Listening Program® supports integration across auditory, visual, and reflex-based systems Why addressing this triad together supports more efficient and sustainable development This free live webinar is for professionals, parents, and individuals seeking a deeper understanding of how listening, vision, and movement shape regulation and learning. About Our Guest Patti Andrich, MA, OTR/L, COVT, FNAP, is an internationally recognized occupational therapist and optometric vision therapist whose work focuses on the integration of auditory processing, vision, and primitive reflex patterns to support regulation, coordination, learning, and emotional well-being across the lifespan. Through her clinical work, Patti is known for her ability to bring clarity to complex developmental profiles that benefit from an integrated, whole-person approach. Her work reflects a deep understanding of how sensory systems interact and how meaningful change occurs when those systems are supported together. In recognition of her clinical leadership and contributions to the field, she was named Vision Therapist of the Year in 2020 and is a Fellow of the National Academies of Practice. Patti is an author and international lecturer and serves on multiple advisory boards related to vision and neurodevelopment. She is a founder of The Vision Development Team, where she works closely with children, adults, and families requiring specialized, individualized care. She has been using The Listening Program® with families and individuals since 2008, supporting those whose needs extend beyond standard approaches and benefit from deeper integration and guidance. About our Host Alex Doman is the founder and CEO of Advanced Brain Technologies and the creator of The Listening Program®, a neuroscience based music listening therapy supporting learning, emotional regulation, and cognitive development across the lifespan. His work centers on how intentional listening experiences can support the brain’s ability to organize, adapt, and thrive. Alex is also a founder of Vital Neuro, a patented, mobile, clinical grade brain training platform that combines responsive music and neurofeedback to support focus, sleep, stress regulation, and emotional balance. A third generation pioneer in brain health and neurodevelopment, he has spent more than 30 years working with families, clinicians, educators, and organizations worldwide. He is the bestselling co author of Healing at the Speed of Sound® and a frequent guest on podcasts and interviews focused on brain health, development, and the practical application of neuroscience in everyday life. Alex is widely respected for his ability to translate complex research into accessible, compassionate approaches that support individuals and families in real world settings.
