Sound Relief Tinnitus and Hearing Center – Westminster
If you live in Westminster, Broomfield, Arvada, or northwest Denver and experience tinnitus, hyperacusis, or unresolved hearing issues, know that you’re not alone. Living with any of these can take a toll on your overall quality of life. At Sound Relief Hearing Center in Westminster, Dr. Leah Mitchell and Dr. Morgan Ashby can provide the help you need and the relief you deserve.
Helping people with tinnitus was the foundation of Sound Relief. Our mission was – and continues to be – to eradicate the misconception that nothing can be done to treat tinnitus. Almost 10 years later and nearly 10,000 patients helped, Sound Relief has become a beacon of hope for people across Colorado, the United States, and worldwide who cannot find relief elsewhere. Our vast experience from primarily working with tinnitus sufferers combined with our expertise utilizing Tinnitus Retraining Therapy (TRT) allows us effectively treat even the most complex cases.
Another area that we specialize in is hyperacusis – also known as decreased sound tolerance or sound sensitivity. Treatment for these patients is very similar to tinnitus treatment, and our experience lends itself to very successful outcomes greatly improving their quality of life.
Of course, we help people with hearing problems as their primary concern. Since all of our providers are Doctors of Audiology, patients can count on exceptional care without exception.
Whatever issues you are experiencing with Sound, Sound Relief is here to help!

If constant buzzing or ringing in your ears is part of your every day, you may have tinnitus. Characterized by the perception of sound without an external source, tinnitus can make daily life a challenge. The perception and severity of tinnitus vary greatly with each person. If tinnitus is becoming a bigger and bigger problem for you, you understand how much it can disrupt your life.
There is hope. There are multiple treatment options available to help alleviate your tinnitus symptoms. These treatments are evidence-based and tailored to fit your specific needs. Tinnitus retraining therapy (TRT) can treat both the symptoms and the source of tinnitus through sound therapy. By combining TRT with counseling and relaxation methods, we have found overwhelming success with our patients.
Hyperacusis is an uncomfortable and heightened sensitivity to sound. Everyday sounds, such as chewing, watching television, or just a simple conversation can cause unwanted reactions.
The severity of hyperacusis varies from patient to patient and can lead to other problems such as migraines, ear pain, and daily discomfort. To take the first step towards relief, schedule an appointment with Dr. Mitchell or Dr. Ewing. They will evaluate your case, answer all of your questions, and provide a treatment recommendation that they believe will work.
You should really start getting your hearing tested annually once you reach the age of 40 – 50, and no, online hearing tests don’t count. Of course, if you notice a change in your hearing before then, it is more important to come in sooner. A hearing evaluation provides your audiologist with important information about your overall hearing health. Hearing evaluations involve a comprehensive review of your hearing and medical history, a physical examination of your ear, as well as diagnostic tests to measure the frequencies of sounds you hear well and not so good.
When you work with an audiologist to find the perfect hearing aid for you, you improve your chances of success exponentially. Even better, at Sound Relief our audiologists can fit any hearing aid style from any manufacturer. Top that with Dr. Ewing’s and Dr. Mitchell’s commitment to ensuring your ongoing programming and fit are always excellent. Please, experience the difference at Sound Relief.
Wax Removal
Ear wax is actually entirely natural, and even beneficial, for your ears. Ear wax prevents dust and bacteria from entering your ear and causing damage. However, if this ear wax builds up, it could lead to problems. In fact, ear wax is the culprit in most ear level problems. We offer the service for $50 – $100 per ear. Pricing depends on the time it takes to perform the procedure, and we highly recommend scheduling an appointment.
