Dyslexia is a specific learning disability that primarily affects reading and language processing. It is characterised by difficulties with accurate and/or fluent word recognition and by poor spelling and decoding abilities. These challenges are not indicative of a person’s overall intelligence; rather, they stem from differences in the brain's wiring that affect how language is processed. In the context of healthcare and mental health, understanding dyslexia is crucial, as individuals with this condition may face additional stressors and mental health challenges, including anxiety and low self-esteem, due to their struggles with reading and writing.

In neurodiversity, Dyslexia is commonly expereinced by those with other neurodiverse traits.

The Neurocalm team are currently building services for this condition, ensuring that the resulting service is in keeping with all our services.
