Learning Disorder & Intellectual Developmental Disorder
Specific Learning Disorder
Children with Specific Learning Disorder have difficulty learning and using academic skills. If your child is having persistent difficulty learning Reading, Writing, or Math; consider an evaluation for a Specific Learning Disorder. Children’s self-esteem are affected from continued difficulty in school. They begin to feel like a failure. Thus, identifying a Learning Disorder and providing the necessary supports is vital. I will help you understand the difficulty your child is experiencing and the supports/interventions needed to remediate the difficulty.
Intellectual Developmental Disorder
Children with Intellectual Developmental Disorder are impacted by difficulties with daily living.
I understand the fear many parents feel that their child won’t have a fair shot in life. I focus on your child’s strengths as well as addressing the areas of needs. In addition to assessing intellectual ability; I include an assessment of adaptive functioning, functional social skills assessment, academic skills, and vocational assessments (for adolescents). The majority of children with Intellectual Developmental Disorder grow up to live productive lives and I want to help you get them there.
