Synopsis

Gifted Not Broken is a refreshing look at the struggles and successes of children and adults struggling with the effects of Dyslexia, ADHD and Autism Spectrum Disorders. Like myself, many parents of children with learning disabilities have struggled to understand their children. We have tried to rely on our schools for support only to be left wanting. We have looked to our health professionals for solutions only to be offered ambiguous labels or confusing diagnoses. We’ve been offered a variety of so-called solutions, including various drugs and medications, psychiatry, occupational therapy, outdated phonics programs, behavioral counseling and an abbreviated education—all of which left my child feeling damaged and broken. My personal experience with the Neuro-Linguistic Learning Center was a refreshing break from the prevailing model of learning disabilities and the confusing array of theories and treatments proposed for myself and my children over the years. At the Center, my children and I were recognized and appreciated for our abilities more than our disabilities. We experienced first-hand that being different doesn’t mean being broken. With the help of Mr. Hughes and the Learning Center, we were given new and effective ways of learning and meeting the world. We were respected and understood. We were taught to understand, appreciate and respect ourselves. We were each shown that in our own unique way we were gifted and not broken. I am truly grateful to Mr. Hughes and his work at the Neuro-Linguistic Learning Center. -– Jennifer Means
