Learning Disabilities And Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder

We provide a special focus on learning disabilities (LD) and attention deficit
hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). LD and ADHD affect a significant portion of
the general population.

These disorders often result in an individual experiencing significant
problems in learning and an increasingly negative attitude toward work or
school. Often, behavioral symptoms such as impulsivity and social skill
deficits accompany primary school or work failures, making the problem more
complicated.

Such individuals will continue to suffer from academic and emotional
difficulties until their specific disorders are identified and remediation is
initiated. Psychoeducational assessment provides the most efficient means
of identifying these difficulties.

Fees

Fees are based on time spent. Several standardized assessments are
offered at special package rates. Health insurance may cover a portion of
service. Additional services, such as treatment, are charged separately.
