Learning Difficulties
& Disabilities.

Learning difficulties including dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, processing speed deficits, and ADHD are often associated with dysregulations of brainwave activity. Children with these difficulties tend to have an interest-based nervous system, which makes it challenging for them to focus on and retain things that aren't of interest to them. This often leads to becoming more easily frustrated or angry and a heightened sensitivity to criticism.

​
