Hi Athca,

I agree that you should get a second opinion about the reading/writing problems and possible dyslexia.

I am also from Ontario/Quebec, and I think in our area speech therapists, not psychologists, are often the best resource for testing for and treating dyslexia. My son, in grade 1, just turned 7, has alot of the same issues as yours (trouble learning to read, low rapid naming scores, reversals and sequencing problems, difficulty writing legibly). We are working with a speech therapist for the reading and spelling and an OT for the writing.
