From Academic Struggles to Social Challenges: Understanding & Supporting Processing Speed Differences
Show notes
Ever wonder why it takes three hours to do 20 minutes of homework? Or why they freeze up when you ask them to get dressed? Join me, Holly Blanc Moses, and special guest, Leila Beikmohomadi, as we take a deep dive into processing speed differences in ADHD and autistic children and teens. We also share our lived experience with processing speed differences!
What Parents, Therapists & Educators Will Learn:
- What processing speed actually is (hint: it's not about intelligence)
- How slower processing speed shows up at home and school
- Why anxiety makes processing speed even slower
- The mental health impact on kids who feel constantly behind
- Practical accommodations and strategies that actually work
- Why "hurry up" never helps and what to do instead
