Staying social keeps your brain sharp - and healthy hearing helps make those connections possible. 🧠💬 When you can fully engage in conversations, laugh with friends, and stay persistent with the people you love, your brain stays active and supported.

Healthy hearing = stronger connections = a stronger mind. 🧡👂

If you’re straining to keep up in conversations, it might be more than just”background noise”. 👂💭

Hearing loss can make everyday interactions exhausting - but it doesn’t have to be that way. With the right care and support, communication can feel easy again. 🧡

Our Story

To many parents, their children inspire them in some way. It may be a social media post or a work of art. But, to Shanna M. Mortensen-Dewsnup, Au.D., CCC-A, FAAA, her son inspired her to go into the field of audiology to help better understand his diagnosis.

Her eldest son, Brenden, now 18, was born with moderate to severe hearing loss. During her studies, she realized that he had Usher syndrome, which is characterized by both hearing and vision loss (he was diagnosed as blind at age 12, and diagnosed with Usher syndrome at that age as well).

“While I was in school, I took a difficult genetics class and we studied all of the syndromes associated with hearing loss. It was one of the hardest classes in my doctoral program,” Mortensen-Dewsnup recalls. “...Well, about three years later, I started noticing symptoms of vision problems. I knew something wasn't right… At this time, he was showing all of the symptoms of Usher syndrome and I took him in again to have his eyes thoroughly checked… About a week later, she called me and confirmed that I was correct and said that he was already in the worst stages of the retinal disease ‘retinitis pigmentosa’ and would need to start learning Braille immediately and using a white cane immediately. Talk about a whirlwind of emotions!”

To be closer to family support, Mortensen-Dewsnup moved to Arizona. She says that she is thrilled to share that Brenden is doing amazing now.

“He is in all of the honors AP classes and in his senior year of high school,” she says. “He plays concert piano and plays the bells in the marching band… Despite being able to see only 5 degrees of central vision in each eye, he navigates around with his cane and hearing aids and is the most positive young man you will ever meet. He is such an inspiration to everyone who meets him.”

In addition to her son Brenden, Mortensen-Dewsnup also has a son named Ian, 16.

“As a single mom, my major motivation was my kids and not giving up. I knew that I wanted to provide a better life for my boys,” Mortensen-Dewsnup says. “My oldest had hearing loss, speech delay, and was getting therapy for high functioning Asperger’s. My life was studying, therapy sessions with my oldest, and activities with my youngest so he didn't feel left out. It was hard to juggle everything as well as the intense coursework for my doctoral degree.”

“I had to prove to them that we could do it, even if it was hard,” she continues. “I didn't want them to know how poor we really were so I found ways to do fun things outdoors that were cheap and or free to still give them as good as a life as possible.”

Once home in Arizona, Mortensen-Dewsnup met her husband Kevin.

“We talked a lot about why I went into audiology and what I really wanted to do. I didn't feel like I was following my passion for audiology where I was working. That is when we decided to start our own practice,” she says. “He came up with the name Happy Ears Hearing Center because he said ‘you make people happy again and give them hope.’”

“We have grown our office to two locations and employ audiologists and staff who share the same passion that we do and plan to continue to grow to offer services to other parts of the Valley,” she adds.

Mortensen-Dewsnup notes that, at her successful practice, her team prides themselves on helping people hear better. “Everyone in the office has some sort of relationship with hearing loss,” she notes.

“There is nothing better than seeing the smile on an individual’s face when they experience hearing for the first time or hearing again after years of missing out on hearing their spouses’ or family’s voices,” she says. “I love what I do. It is very rewarding to see how much it changes lives.”
