This book addresses the need to view specific learning disorders (SLDs) within a mental health framework, as supported by their placement alongside autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5). It describes how policy and practice point to a different perspective – specifically that SLDs are often treated as educational rather than psychological problems – and examines the implications of this dichotomy. The book reviews empirical research that suggests children need access to treatment for clinical components of SLDs that may respond to psychological intervention separately from, and in addition to, educational interventions. It provides a theoretical framework for organizing research findings and clinical perspectives that support understanding the clinical components of SLDs and addresses the need for a mental health framework within which to approach theory, treatment, and assessment of SLDs.
Key areas of coverage include:
- Examining different theoretical orientations to learning disorders (e.g., cognitive, behavioral, neuropsychoeducational, psychoanalytic).
- Adapting evidence-based therapeutic techniques for use with children and adolescents who have learning disorders.
- The need for accurate and well characterized assessment of SLDs.
- How incorporating a cognitive neuroscience perspective into assessment can move LD treatment and research forward.
Learning Disorders Across the Lifespan is an essential reference for clinicians, therapists, and other professionals as well as researchers, professors, and graduate students in school and clinical child psychology, special education, speech-language therapy, developmental psychology, pediatrics, social work as well as all interrelated disciplines.

About the Author
Amy Margolis, Ph.D., is Associate Professor of Medical Psychology at Columbia University Irving Medical Center, and Research Scientist at New York State Psychiatric Institute. She is the Director of the Environment, Brain, and Behavior Lab and the NICHD-funded Columbia Psychology and Psychiatry Learning Disability Innovation Hub. She holds a doctorate in Applied Educational Psychology: School Psychology from Teacher’s College, Columbia University and is trained as a clinical neuropsychologist with two decades of experience assessing and treating children with learning and attention disorders. Dr. Margolis is Principal Investigator of several federally funded projects that use neuroimaging (magnetic resonance imaging [MRI] and electroencephalography [EEG]) in longitudinal birth cohorts to study the effects of prenatal exposure to neurotoxicants on brain and behavior outcomes, with a specific focus on learning (academic skills) and attention problems. Most recently, she has served as the text reviser for the chapter on Specific Learning Disorder for DSM 5TR and as Co-Chair of the ECHO (Environmental Influences on Children's Health Outcomes) Neurodevelopment Working Group.
Dr. Margolis is the author of more than 50 peer review papers, many documenting the effects of chemical exposures on neurodevelopment broadly and learning problems specifically. Her work has shown that chemical exposures are overlooked etiologic factors in learning problems particularly among children from economically disadvantaged backgrounds who have been largely excluded from neuroimaging research. She has documented links between reading problems and prenatal exposure to air pollution, environmental tobacco smoke, and flame retardants. In addition, she has identified the shared neurobiological substrate of anxiety and reading problems. Finally, she has published extensively on nonverbal learning disorder (NVLD); she published the first community-based prevalenceestimate of NVLD and documented dysfunction in the brain’s spatial circuit in children with NVLD. Along with Dr. Broitman, she is the author of a comprehensive text on assessing and treating youth with NVLD.
Jessica Broitman, Ph.D., is a psychoanalyst practicing in Berkeley since 1980. She began her career in Boulder, Colorado, in 1973. As a member of the Intensive Treatment Team of the Boulder Mental Health Center, she ran the Gordon Beyer project, which was one of the first residential treatment programs for young people with schizophrenia and bi-polar illness in the country. After moving to California in 1980, she became the Program Coordinator for the Creative Living Center, a day treatment program for adults with mental illness. During this time, she became involved with Joseph Weiss, Hal Sampson and Control Mastery Theory. She formalized the San Francisco Psychotherapy Research Group as a nonprofit organization in 1993. She is President Emerita of SFPRG. She was instrumental in the initiation of SFPRG’s Psychotherapy Training Center and Clinic and served as the Executive Director for 15 years. In 2017 she helped create the International Control Mastery Therapy Center and currently serves as the President of the CMTCenter. She frequently lectures on Weiss’s Control Mastery Theory worldwide.
Dr. Broitman has been involved in researching and treating children with nonverbal learning disabilities and their families for more than 25 years. She co-authored 5 books on that topic for practitioners and parents: including: Nonverbal Learning Disabilities in Children: Bridging the Gap Between Science and Practice (2011) Treating NVLD in Children (2013) and NVLD and Developmental Visual-Spatial Disorder in Children (2020) as well as numerous chapters and articles. She is currently involved in several research projects concerning the treatment and understanding of NVLD and has a special interest in helping professionals and families understand and treat this disorder and is available for consultations.

(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
