Language Processing Disorder

Language Processing Disorder (LPD) is a type of learning disability that affects how a person understands and uses spoken and written language. Individuals with LPD may struggle with grasping the meanings of words, following directions, or expressing thoughts clearly. This condition can impact academic performance and social interactions, as it makes communication more challenging. While intelligence is typically normal, LPD can cause significant difficulties in language-based tasks. Early diagnosis and targeted interventions, such as speech therapy or specialized instruction, can help individuals improve their language skills and succeed in learning environments.
