ADHD or Just a Phase? How to Know When to Be Concerned About Your Child’s Learning
Episode 17
Monday, 8 December, 2025
In this episode of Growing Up with Dr. Sarah, we discuss ADHD, dyslexia and other learning challenges. As report cards and teacher feedback arrive, many parents wonder if short attention spans, reading struggles, or classroom difficulties warrant concern—or a conversation with a mental health professional. Dr. Sarah Adams sits down with Dr. Kelly Christian, clinical psychologist and Clinical Director of the Schaeffer Center, to break down what’s developmentally expected, what might signal ADHD or dyslexia, how to distinguish learning differences from learning disorders, and how parents can confidently trust their instincts when something doesn’t feel right.Episode Highlights: #TitleOne#IEP#IndividualEducationPlan#Multifactored Evaluation#dyslexia#evaluatingfordyslexia#neuropsychologicalevaluation#psychoeducationaltesting#ADHD#LearningDifferences#504PlanPlease SUBSCRIBE, LIKE & SHARE if this topic interests you!Share your thoughts, questions, show ideas:Have questions about today’s episode, or anything else related to the health and wellness of your family?
