[quote=Anonymous]DSM is the diagnostic and statistical manual - the official book of psych and neuro diagnoses. This is semantics, to some extent, especially for learning disabilities. School psychologists "identify" students with specific learning disabilities. A private psychologist "diagnoses" specific learning disabilities. For learning disabilities, which are not covered by insurance for anything typically, this difference doesn't really matter. For other things, such as autism and ADHD, a school identification of ASD or OHI is different than a diagnosis of ASD or ADHD. IMO, it is definitely helpful to have a private diagnosis for everything other than learning disabilities. [/quote]
