Neurodevelopmental
Disorder

Neurodevelopmental disorders encompass a spectrum of conditions affecting brain and nervous system development. Ranging from autism to ADHD, these disorders emerge early in life, impacting cognitive, social, and emotional functions.

At VPM Mindweavers in Ajman, our commitment to understanding neurodevelopmental disorders extends beyond identification and diagnosis; we strive to implement tailored interventions and support systems, enriching the quality of life for those under our care.

Understanding Neurodevelopmental Disorders

Neurodevelopmental disorders impact the nervous system’s development during early growth stages, causing cognitive, communication, motor skills, and social interaction challenges.

The onset of neurodevelopmental disorders often occurs in the early stages of development and tends to persist throughout a person’s lifespan.

Types of Neurodevelopmental Disorders

Motor
Disorder

These include conditions like developmental coordination disorder (DCD), leading to poor motor coordination and fine or gross motor skills challenges.

Specific learning disability

These are a group of disorders leading to persistent difficulties in specific academic areas, impacting overall achievement.

Intellectual Disability

Disorders of intellectual development lead to limitations in intellectual functioning and adaptive behavior, often evident before age 18. These cause challenges in daily living skills and difficulties with problem-solving.

Behavioral conduct disorder

The emotional behavioral disorder is a pattern of persistent antisocial behaviors that significantly violate societal norms and rules.

Tourette
syndrome

A type of tic mental disorder characterized by repetitive, involuntary movements and vocalizations. Tourette syndrome symptoms include blinking, throat clearing, and head jerking.

Attention deficit disorder (ADHD)

ADHD is a condition marked by persistent patterns of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. Symptoms include inattention, fidgeting, impulsivity, and difficulty sustaining task attention.

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD)

ASD is a developmental disorder causing difficulties in social interaction, communication, and repetitive behaviors. Autism spectrum disorder symptoms include difficulty in social relationships, delayed language development, repetitive movements, or speech patterns.

Childhood developmental delay

This condition involves delays in speech and language, motor skills, cognitive development, or social/emotional milestones during childhood.

Developmental language disorder

This condition involves persistent difficulties acquiring and using language, not solely accounted for by hearing loss or intellectual disability.

These disorders co-occur, and individuals may exhibit a combination of symptoms from different categories. Early identification and treatment are crucial for providing appropriate support and enhancing outcomes in individuals with these disorders.
