Do you recognize these as learning roadblocks for your child?

  • Difficulty extracting information when needed, after studying long hours?
  • Difficulty in reading, writing and comprehension?
  • Difficulty organizing and expressing written/verbal thoughts?
  • Confusion of left and right?
  • Problems with basic mathematical concepts?
  • ADD or ADHD (ADHD)

If you do, your child may have a Central Information Processing Disorder, (CIPD) and we may be able to help!

CAPD and CIPD, often misdiagnosed as ADD, ADHD, and other disorders, is the incapacity of an individual to receive and select important information, store it correctly in the brain and then be able to retrieve this information and respond appropriately in different situations.  In some children, it is apparent in their inability to pay attention or sit still.  If there is any background noise, a child with CIPD cannot function at full potential, because they cannot filter out classroom and everyday distractions that typically occur.

The Firmstone Institute provides individual treatment programs for child, teen and adult learners who experience a wide range of learning challenges, including:
 

  • Central Information Processing Disorder (CIPD)

  • Auditory Processing Disorder (CAPD)

  • Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD)

  • Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)

  • Spatial orientation difficulties

  • Maintaining focus in the classroom

  • Left/right confusion

  • Difficulty following sequential instruction

  • Reading/writing comprehension

  • Information recall

  • Mathematical skill deficiencies

A comprehensive, year long study has shown the Bellefonds Method to be highly effective in treating the disorders listed above, with a majority of clients experiencing dramatic improvement in their cognitive and emotional development.
