Dyscalculia is a neurodevelopmental learning disability that makes it difficult to process number-based information and math.

Dyscalculia in adulthood may involve general anxiety about having to perform calculations, difficulty managing time and money, leading to financial issues and missing important appointments/events, difficulty remembering important dates, passwords, and login information.

There is no “cure” for dyscalculia as it is a learning disability; however, there are ways that it can be managed, such as:
1. Obtaining proper accommodations at school/work
2. Psychotherapy to manage emotional symptoms related to dyscalculia
3. Utilizing apps and calendars to better manage your schedule, set reminders, and keep important appointments

If you need help managing difficulties with executive functioning, consider booking with one of our therapists. Click the link in bio for more information.
