My name is Gabriele Soll and I founded Mozart Brain Works after obtaining my APP certification following intensive training at the Mozart Brain Lab Center (www.mozart-brain-lab.com) in Sint Truiden, Belgium, under Jozef Vervoort.

I am completely convinced about the effectiveness of APP because I have experienced it myself in a number of ways. I left a professional career as a CPA to become a certified APP practitioner and help others with this amazing training.
Here is my story:

I am a mother of four, including two special needs children. Our oldest child was diagnosed with an autism spectrum disorder at age 4 and soon after our second child was classified as ADHD by his school. At this point we learned about APP and started the listening program with our boys. For both boys APP was the only treatment they received apart from the special services at their public school and for both of them it was a tremendous success. Today both of our boys are good students in mainstream classrooms. Our older son’s autism is not severe and our younger son’s ADHD classification has been dropped. They both continue the listening training on a regular basis to insure their continued academic and emotional growth.

Our older son had another issue to battle right from birth; he has a third nerve palsy, strabismus, ptosis and other related problems in his right eye. While patching and surgery have contributed to the improvement of his eye, his ophthalmologist believed that the fact that his vision is much better than in other patients with third nerve palsy can be attributed to APP.

Having seen the tremendous success of APP in our boys and having learned more about it during my training for the certification, I did APP sessions during my pregnancies with our two girls. The results were great. I experienced exactly what clinical studies in France about the so called “Tomatis babies” had shown: I was energetic and worry-free throughout both pregnancies and had shorter labors with no need for medication or other medical interventions. The recovery was also very fast. Though what I enjoyed most was the immediate bond, the immediate understanding, between me and the babies. This translated into having very quiet and happy babies who enjoyed the company of others, cried little and developed rapidly without any delays. As children nowadays they are very sociable, independent and have a great sense of themselves. They show what the French call “joie de vivre”, an innate ability to delight in all aspects of life!

After moving here from Germany in 1999, help with the learning of foreign languages is another area in which I have experienced APP’s effectiveness for myself and in our bilingual children. Also several of my clients have improved their pronunciation, fluency and auditory memory of foreign languages. Language immersion and active programs are offered for English, Spanish, German and French. Other languages are available upon request.
