Specific Learning Disabilities Testing in Broward County

Specific Learning Disability means a disorder in one or more of the basic psychological processes involved in understanding or in using language, spoken or written, that may manifest itself in difficulty with listening, thinking, speaking, reading, writing or doing mathematical calculations, such as dyslexia, dyscalculia, and dysgraphia. Often when a learning disability goes without treatment, a child may feel frustrated with schoolwork, have low self-esteem, suffer from depression or anxiety, be unmotivated, and fail to thrive.

However, with professional assistance, children who face challenges with specific learning disabilities can learn strategies to help them cope and flourish in their daily lives at home and at school. The earlier you seek help for your child, the quicker interventions can be incorporated into your home life and supports and techniques into the child’s school life, and the more likely success will be.

Luckily, our team of experts at the Jeff Masarek Behavioral Health Center can meet with you and your child to determine if your child has a learning disability and which type so that they can get the support and service they need to build their strengths and strengthen their weaknesses.
