Mary B. Asper – Dyslexia
The overwhelming frustration a person with Dyslexia goes through knowing what they want to say or do, but not being able to express it on paper or get the words out, socially withdraws them in an attempt to hide their struggles…
But Dyslexia is not just letter reversal!
It is time to shift our mindset from approaching Dyslexia as only a reading impairment and start to consider the overall medical concerns! And when looking for the optimal treatment option for a person suffering with this learning disorder, not one discipline can successfully work with Dyslexia as it is made up of many characteristics and underlying circumstances.
That is why we brought together 2 hand-picked experts, Mary Asper MS, CCC-SLP and Penny Stack, OTD, OTR/L, CLT, to go beyond reading interventions to offer this collaborative training experience. Join Mary and Penny in our NEW Dyslexia Online Course as they share a combined 60+ years of experience to dive into the various layers that make up Dyslexia.
