WHAT IS DYSLEXIA?

Dyslexia is more than just a difficulty in reading; it is a neurological condition that affects a person's ability to recognize and process written language. It’s important to acknowledge that dyslexia does not reflect intelligence but rather a distinctive way in which the brain processes information.

‍

Contrary to a temporary struggle with reading, this learning disability is a persistent challenge that can impact various aspects of life. Individuals with dyslexia may face difficulties in decoding words, spelling, and often experience frustration in academic and professional settings.

‍

COMMON SYMPTOMS OF DYSLEXIA

‍

Difficulty decoding words, slow and inaccurate reading, and struggles with comprehension.
Persistent issues with spelling and phonological awareness, showing often orthographic mistakes.
Difficulty expressing thoughts in writing and organizing written work.
Struggles with following a sequence of directions or events.
Takes longer than expected to complete reading and writing tasks.
Challenges in accurately pronouncing words.
Lack of motivation to study, sadness, frustration, anxiety, irritability.
Low self-esteem.

HOW CAN WE INTERVENE IN DYSLEXIA?

NeuroImprove distinguishes itself from other psychological practices through its rigorous approach to challenges and obstacles in all areas and contexts of life. Our process is meticulous and tailored to the individual needs of each client. Here’s how:

‍

At NeuroImprove, we redefine dyslexia intervention by blending advanced neurotechnology with expert psychotherapeutic strategies. Our approach is centered on two essential components: the insightful qEEG exam and personalized interventions led by our clinical psychologists.

‍

Insightful qEEG Assessment: Our process begins with a comprehensive qEEG examination, providing real-time insights into the brainwaves that compose the brain pattern activity and might be associated with dyslexia. This invaluable data serves as the cornerstone for understanding how each individual's brain uniquely processes information.
‍
Expert Psychotherapeutic Interventions: Our psychologists leverage the insights gained from the qEEG exam to tailor personalized treatment plans that may include neurofeedback training as well as psychotherapeutic strategies. By addressing both cognitive challenges and emotional well-being, our interventions aim to empower individuals with dyslexia to navigate their challenges with confidence and success.

‍

Throughout the therapeutic process, family, school, and other healthcare professionals are also involved. This important support network is a key element in maximizing the effectiveness of the intervention.

Testemunhos

We arrived at NeuroImprove at the end of February, which was when I became aware of the existence of this clinic and this treatment. We came from Nespereira, Oliveira de Frades (Viseu), and I left here feeling worse than when I arrived that day. Everything seemed very long and complicated to me, I thought our family budget wouldn't hold up, that there would be many trips, and everything seemed impossible to me.

‍

But then I got home and calmly talked to everyone, and together we made the best decision to proceed with the treatment. But with fear, "will it be the best", "can we do it", worse, "is it worth it"?

‍

There were many doubts, but it was very worth it, everything.

Joel, shortly after, stopped taking medication (which he didn't want) and gradually evolved. From a boy, he became a little man in such a short time.

‍

Thank you very much to the whole team. And now I can say that it was worth it.

‍

Thank you all very much.

I would like to congratulate the entire team at NeuroImprove for the effort, attention, and especially for the professionalism demonstrated.

‍

What distinguishes professionals in any field is not just the knowledge they possess, but the willingness to go further, overcoming every day and every hour.

‍

I would say that as a researcher, I know well the difficulty of finding effective results for every problem encountered.

‍

Keep it up...

Today, June 8, 2017, is a special day when my son Pedro is discharged. There were several months of trips to Porto in search of the light that would guide us or help Pedro evolve, overcome his fears, his anguishes, and especially his anxieties.

They were difficult months, months of work, attention and dedication on Pedro's part, and essentially with Dr. Marta, to whom I thank for her commitment and dedication. Patience was essential for us to understand Pedro's abilities, his way of reacting, and attention to his surroundings. During these months, we saw Pedro grow, become stronger, and motivated for studies and life's difficulties.

The support Pedro received at NeuroImprove was very important for him to learn that he can actually overcome himself, achieve what he seeks, and mainly realize that he is not different from his friends.

A thank you to the entire team that accompanied Pedro and a huge wish of happiness to Dr. Marta.

Pedro's parents.

I am sincerely grateful for all the dedication and effort that the Neuroimprove team provided to my son. I came here very apprehensive six months ago: without knowledge of the techniques they would apply, worried about my son, but also hopeful.

‍

I didn't bring him here in vain; the difference in him is noticeable and for the better. I am confident, I feel your support, and I have also learned a lot.

‍

Enjoy your holidays!

‍

Receive my sincere thanks.
