[quote=Anonymous]I tried to comment on old threads, but I think a new post is easier since people were responding to the OP. DS is 24 months old and has an expressive speech delay. He's had early intervention which has been very helpful and he's catching up - expanding his vocabulary and starting to make 2 word sentences. He's still behind many others his age (25th percentile). He was evaluated today by clinical speech therapy for extra support and she said she's not concerned about his speech as much as his behavior (potential ADHD, sensory issues) and that he needs an OT and neuropsych eval. I'm just a bit surprised because DS had always displayed these behaviors of inattention and we've been blown off by multiple providers across different disciplines. I guess my question is if your child has a speech delay and ADHD, who helped you address the ADHD best (OT, neuropsych, etc.)? Did your child experience a language boom after addressing the ADHD?[/quote]
