Education and Learning Disabilities Therapists in Midland Park, NJ
Now more than ever, it is clear that one's mental health must be nurtured. It is my belief that mental health is just as important to one's well being as one's physical health, if not more so. We must allow ourselves the opportunity to achieve emotional and mental clarity in order to promote positive change. Having the opportunity to discuss one's feelings in a relaxed and non-judgmental atmosphere is something that I take seriously as a clinician. I view the therapist-client relationship as a very special one, which I feel requires a mutual respect towards the process of healing.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, you’re not alone.

Your 20s are supposed to be exciting — but for a lot of people they're quietly overwhelming. The pressure to have it together, perform at a high level, and figure out who you are all at once is a lot to carry. I work with college students and adults navigating anxiety, depression, perfectionism, trauma, and the kind of life transitions that hit hardest in early adulthood — first jobs, new cities, shifting relationships, identity questions that don't have easy answers. If you're exhausted from holding the bar so high for yourself, this is a space to breathe, reset, and actually build something sustainable.

Education and Learning Disabilities Therapists
How effective is treatment for learning disabilities?
When initiated early and tailored to a child’s specific needs, learning disability treatment can be quite effective at helping a child cope with their disability, though its exact efficacy may depend on the severity of symptoms and whether comorbid disorders exist. Less is known about treatment initiated in adulthood, but it is certainly possible that an adult with a learning disability will see some improvement—or at the very least, identify workarounds and accommodations that could make symptoms less burdensome in day-to-day life.
When should someone seek treatment for learning disabilities?
It’s best to seek treatment as early as possible. Because learning disabilities often go unnoticed until a child starts school, or even until they’re a few years along, regular check-ins with teachers and doctors can help parents determine whether children are meeting milestones and keeping up with peers or whether an evaluation for learning disabilities may be warranted. And although earlier is always better, it’s never too late to be evaluated for learning disabilities and to seek treatment.
What happens if learning disabilities are left untreated?
Undiagnosed and untreated learning disabilities can be a source of significant frustration and shame for a child, who may feel that their challenges stem from a lack of intelligence or willpower. Such feelings can trigger low self-esteem, depression, or anxiety, which may push a child toward risky behaviors, including substance use. In adulthood, untreated learning disabilities can interfere with career success, and lingering feelings of self-doubt and shame can negatively affect someone’s mental health.
Are there medications for learning disabilities?
Currently, there are no medications designed to treat specific learning disabilities such as dysgraphia or dyscalculia. However, someone with a learning disability may be prescribed medication for a comorbid condition, such as anxiety, depression, or ADHD, which may have positive downstream effects on their learning disability; for example, a child with both ADHD and dyslexia may find that they’re better able to focus on their reading exercises after being prescribed a stimulant medication.
