Who is an Exceptional
‘Out of the Box’ Child?
An ‘exceptional child’ is often a term used to describe a child who possesses distinctive qualities, characteristics, or needs that set them apart from what most people consider a typical child’s development. These unique attributes can encompass various aspects, including cognitive abilities, physical attributes, learning styles, or emotional needs, among others. Often these children are diagnosed with ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder), LD (learning disabilities), SPD (sensory processing difficulties), ASD (autism spectrum disorder), and more.

Courses and Group Coaching
Dr. Mankes helped me come up with a plan that finally made sense for Mason. She really helped me when I didn’t know what to do. This is such a hard role to have as a parent of a special child. I went from having PTSD to actually managing my days, having a peaceful relationship, and having a more concrete plan for the future. She helped me also get support from other parents, where I can comfortably discuss these issues and feel part of a community. Thank you, Dr. Carol, for your invaluable support during these preschool years when the teachers were tough and not supportive. I now stand up for the best outcome for Mason!
