Keynote Lectures: Tinnitus, Hyperacusis, Low Frequency Noise and Hearing in the Workplace
As a clinical physicist-audiologist, I have a unique combination of scientific expertise and personal involvement. My passion for hearing care arose because I see every day what hearing problems do to people – physically, emotionally and in the workplace. With years of experience in guiding patients and organizations, I know how to make complex subjects understandable and practical. I specialize in tinnitus, hyperacusis and low-frequency noise pollution (LFG), and help professionals understand how these complaints arise and how to deal with them effectively. In addition, I focus on hearing problems in the workplace: from noise damage to supporting employees with hearing problems.
Why choose my keynote?
• Bringing science and practice together, with real impact.
• Personal insight and practical solutions.
• A passionate speaker who inspires and motivates.

The Integration of ACT and Hearing
✔ Acceptance: ACT teaches people to accept their painful experiences instead of avoiding them. For people with hearing problems, this means acknowledging their discomfort and emotions without trying to suppress them. This can help reduce the emotional burden of hearing problems.
✔ Cognitive defusion: This technique helps people step back from their thoughts and see them for what they are – just words or mental images – rather than absolute truths. This can help reduce the negative impact of thoughts about hearing problems.
✔ Mindfulness: By being present in the moment, people with hearing problems can learn to focus their attention on the here and now, instead of on the fear of future sounds or the past. Mindfulness can also help reduce the stress and anxiety that often accompany hearing problems.
✔ Values: ACT helps people identify what is truly important to them and align their lives with these values. For people with hearing loss, this may mean making lifestyle changes so that they can still participate in activities they value despite their hearing loss.
✔ Committed Action: ACT encourages people to take actions that bring them closer to their values, despite the presence of difficulties. This can help them live a more fulfilled and meaningful life, despite their hearing problems.
