Homepathy

A Case of Asperger Syndrome

Beth was an 11-year-old girl whose mother brought her in for a consultation mostly to address behavioral and emotional issues.   Over the years she had a number of neuropsych evaluations that led to an alphabet soup of diagnoses - ADHD, ODD (Oppositional Defiance Disorder), ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder), AS (Asperger Syndrome) and my personal favorite PDD-NOS (Pervasive Developmental Disorder - Not Otherwise Specified).
