Struggling with reading, writing, math, or concentration can leave both children and adults feeling frustrated, overwhelmed, and uncertain about their abilities. These challenges may affect school, work, or everyday life, and without answers, it can be difficult to know what steps to take. At Michelle C. Delehant, Ph.D., Inc., we provide professional learning disability assessments in Mokena, Illinois, to help identify the underlying causes of these difficulties and create a clear path toward support and success.

What Is a Learning Disability?

A learning disability is a neurological condition that impacts the way an individual processes information. It is not a reflection of intelligence, but rather a difference in how the brain learns, understands, and communicates information. Common learning disabilities include dyslexia, dyscalculia, and dysgraphia.

Signs that someone may have a learning disability include:

• Persistent trouble with reading comprehension or fluency
• Difficulty solving math problems or understanding numbers
• Struggles with spelling, writing, or organizing thoughts on paper
• Challenges with following instructions or remembering information
• Avoidance of academic or work-related tasks due to frustration

How a Learning Disability Assessment Can Help

A comprehensive learning disability assessment provides valuable insight into an individual’s cognitive strengths and weaknesses. By identifying specific challenges, the assessment allows for tailored recommendations, such as academic accommodations, targeted interventions, or workplace support. These evaluations not only explain why certain struggles occur but also empower individuals with practical tools to improve performance and build confidence.
