Two gifted experts share their knowledge and strategies to support your children. Dr. Paul Beljan & Dr. Justin Gardner from Beljan Psychological Services Two Topics – Why They Are the Way They Are – Understanding the Gifted Brain and Asynchronous Development Understanding the gifted child’s brain is essential in order to support them. Gifted brains develop asynchronously, that is that different areas develop at different rates when compared to their age-level peers. The resultant behavior is consistent with many of Dubrowski’s exceptionalities and ADHD. Join us for a better understanding of your child’s brain and some strategies to better support them! Gifted, ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder, & More – How To Help Figure It Out and Support Your Child The top diagnoses asked about by parents in our private pediatric neuropsychology practice are: ADHD, oppositional defiant disorder, short term memory deficit, processing speed deficit, central auditory processing deficit, sensory integration deficit, and working memory deficit. More often than not, these disorders are not present. We will review these diagnoses and offers simple and logical methods for how to determine if they may exist in the child or not. We will further discuss how diagnoses of these often affect gifted children, as well as new research into Autism Spectrum Disorder with giftedness.
