This week on the Spot Family podcast, we get together with Danielle Copplin to learn more about educational and developmental psychology. In our conversation with Danielle, we discuss her role in diagnosing neurodevelopmental disorders like dyslexia, dysgraphia and ADHD, to name a few. We delve into how a formal diagnosis can help families seek out and access the support they need and why parents shouldn’t be nervous about taking their child to see a developmental or educational psychologist. We also discuss how speech pathologists and developmental and educational psychologists can work in tandem to diagnose and treat children. Join us today for an informative and inspiring conversation on lifelong learning, the joy that comes from helping families and so much more!
