Mental and Physical Disability
![[object Object]](/what-we-treat/mental-dis.webp)
Mental and physical disabilities refer to impairments in cognitive performance and physical function. These disabilities can significantly affect a child’s behavioral and psychological well-being.
Mental disabilities, which occur before the age of 18 and are the most common type of developmental disability, are characterized by limitations in intellectual performance and adaptive behavior, such as social and practical skills. This can lead to challenges in general learning and a longer time required to develop daily functional skills, necessitating professional intervention by behavioral specialists.
Children with physical disabilities are more likely to suffer from psychological disorders, such as anxiety and depression.
