Dyslexia and ADHD: Connections and Treatments with Dr. Karin Varblow

ASDEC presents
"Dyslexia and ADHD: Connections and Treatments," with Dr. Karin Varblow.  Dr Varblow  is a pediatrician with expertise in Behavioral Pediatrics and treating children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). After serving individuals as a general pediatrician for over a decade, she opened her own practice to work intensively with families whose children have behavioral issues.  Her interest in ADHD and Behavioral Pediatrics has developed into more of a passion, and her treatment style addresses the unique needs of the patients and their family members. 

Dr. Varblow will discuss the intricate relationship between dyslexia and ADHD which frequently co-occur but can also mimic or mask each other, making diagnosis challenging. The presentation underscores the importance of understanding the distinct characteristics of both dyslexia and ADHD so that clinicians and academic therapists may learn to differentiate them. By doing so, clinicians may tailor appropriate treatment plans that address the unique needs of students with Dyslexia and ADHD. 

Parents and other caregivers are welcome to attend this session so that they can better understand their child's learning behavior and identify the most effective treatment options.
