These individuals have difficulty connecting with peers and may seem aloof and in their own world. A good eval will determine if this is real Autism (even if high-functioning or mild) or a combination of unique personality characteristics. The doctor then teaches how ASD has affected ones thinking and behavior with recommendations made for ABA, behavior modification, social skills, parenting and quick-start home-based techniques.

Recommendations for accommodations, new learning approaches, 504 and IEPs plus any therapies necessary are made in a straight-talk meeting with the parents or adult patient.

There are several types of Learning Disabilities including Dyslexia (reading), Dyscalculia (math) and Dysgraphia (writing). Within reading, auditory deficits might affect phonological awareness and listening. Visual Processing deficits, colloquially called dyslexia, cause delays and frustration in the reading process. A history of speech or ear infections is sometimes correlated with reading problems. Dysgraphia is also often seen with dyslexic kids as demonstrated by reversals beyond 2nd grade. Dyscalculia might not be picked up until 3rd grade when they cannot remember the multiplications tables or the analog clock.
See the blog for more signs of Dyslexia.

A child, teen or adult with Attention Disorders (ADHD formerly called ADD) exhibits daydreaming, disorganization, distractibility, resistance to nonpreferred tasks like reading and difficulty sitting. Due to disorganization and distractibility, parents find themselves going to the Lost and Found too often or redirecting their children during homework time. Girls often fall “below the radar” because they tend to be well-behaved and just exhibit inattention without hyperactivity.

Children, adolescents and adults with High Functioning Autism, formerly called Asperger’s Syndrome have difficulty making eye contact, and reading subtle social signals. They may live in their own world filled with preoccupations (Video game characters, scientific or creative “themes” or mechanical objects like doors and light switches) which causes incessant talk and unyielding focus. Sensory concerns occur like aversions to fabrics, textures, foods and noises. They may avoid social interaction or just not be able to “read the room.”

Dr. Eisenberg worked with my 7 year old as we were evaluating for a learning disability. He walked us through the entire process, was upfront with expectations and cost, and was able to work quickly to help us get answers. He helped us understand more about how our child learns and how she could best be helped in the school setting. He was also available for follow up questions.

We had an amazing, thorough evaluation completed for our child. Dr. Eisenberg was great at connecting with our teenager and gathered valuable information. His delivery of his findings were detailed, easy to understand, and honest. Highly recommend!

Dr. Gary was very knowledgeable, detailed in his reporting, and gave excellent recommendation to help my daughter navigate learning resources while in college.

Dr. Eisenberg is amazing. I was flying-in to see him because I would never be able to find a knowledgeable and talented psychologist like him in my state. I'm glad I did.

I have known Dr. Eisenberg for two years now. I am a law student with ADHD. I applied for MPRE accommodations and was rejected without a proper neuro-psych evaluation and report. My doctor recommended I see Dr. Eisenberg for formal testing and a comprehensive report. He was very responsive and worked with my fast approaching deadline and busy schedule. I submitted his report and was granted my accommodations. A year and a half later, I had to apply for bar exam accommodations. The bar exam accommodations required additional materials and letters. Once again, Dr. Eisenberg was super easy to work with and filled out the required paperwork in a timely manner. Due to his diligence and familiarity, I was granted my testing accommodations. He is extremely familiar with the paperwork and can fill out the paperwork for any state that you want to sit for the bar exam and practice in. I would highly recommend Dr. Eisenberg!

"Dr. Eisenberg was very helpful. The first psychologist I've seen that actually has made a difference. Seeing him has changed my life!"
Allison, 2015
"Spot on - fantastic. Would use him again, again and again! He tested my son and not only told us what was going on but helped us as parents understand how to help our son, how he can help himself and what we needed to do for him at school to get those things accomplished. I have nothing but fantastic things to say about Dr. Eisenberg!!! He changed our son's life!"
