There is hope for misophonia and we can help.

ANNOUNCING July 9th is the very FIRST World Misophonia Awareness Day! Audiologists at UNCG Speech and Hearing Center are proud to be leaders in the effort to help people living with misophonia better manage and cope with their symptoms.

Other enviornmental sounds such as clocks ticking, pen tapping, keyboard clicking, and air conditioners running also are common triggers. If you or someone you know has misophonia, please reach out to us. We are here to help!..
