Defining Minds, LLC will soon be opening their new center in the Palm
Springs Plaza in Coral Springs. The center focuses on identifying and
treating the underlying cause behind learning problems. Defining Minds
equips students with the cognitive tools that are required to become
efficient learners, enabling children of all ages and abilities to reach
their full academic potential.

Each child is evaluated using a series of assessment tools to identify areas
of weakness such as auditory or visual processing, attention, comprehension,
memory or problem solving. Based upon the results, a one-to-one program is
custom designed to quickly strengthen the deficiencies, taking into account
the student’s unique individual needs. Programs guarantee success in as
little as 12-24 weeks.  Parents report that children who complete the
program exhibit improved confidence, grades, self-esteem and overall
achievement.

Serving the tri-county area, Defining Minds is the leading provider for
children with Learning Disabilities, Poor Grades, Dyslexia, Central Auditory
Processing Disorder (C/APD), ADD/ADHD, PDD-NOS/Autism/Asperger’s, Memory
Impairment, Brain Injury and Sensory Integration Dysfunction. The center
addresses the range of speech, language and developmental delays that hinder
normal educational development, as well as assisting children who are just
struggling in school.

Defining Minds creates a customized program utilizing an array of leading,
research-based, neurocognitive interventions to promote academic success
including: PACE (Processing and Cognitive Enhancement), Master The Code
(Sound to Code), Seeing Stars® (Symbol Imagery for Fluency), Visualizing and
Verbalizing® (Language Comprehension and Thinking), On Cloud Nine® Math (Math
Concepts and Computation), LiPS® (Reading, Spelling and Speech), Integrated
Listening Systems (Improves Physical and Mental Aptitude) and Handwriting
Without Tears. FCAT and SAT prep is also available, as well as psychology
and testing services.

Alicia Anfossi is the Founder and Executive Director of Defining
Minds, LLC. Her expertise is in the treatment of auditory processing
disorders, related disorders and learning disabilities. “Through the
Learning Rx cognitive skills training program that I owned in Boca Raton for
the past 2 years, I had the privilege of working directly with struggling
children,” says Alicia.  “Seeing their success led me to create Defining
Minds as a way to offer many cognitive and academic skill programs to a much
wider audience. To watch children go from being afraid to participate in
class to holding their heads high with excitement and confidence makes my
day!”

The center will be located at 10341 Royal Palm Blvd. in Coral Springs. For
