Dr. Leckliter, a specialist in developmental neuropsychology, has more than 20 years of experience providing clinical services to children with neurodevelopmental disorders and their families. At the UC Davis M.I.N.D. Institute and Children's Hospital, she serves children who are affected by a broad range of conditions, including Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, disorders on the autism spectrum; learning disorders; and other conditions resulting from adverse developmental and environmental risk factors such as prenatal exposure to teratogens and child abuse and neglect. Learning disorders are an area of particular interest to her and she is currently developing a Learning Disorders Clinic at the M.I.N.D. Institute. Dr. Leckliter is committed to helping families understand their child’s unique strengths and cope with their child's special needs. This process enhances the child and parent relationship, thereby supporting the child's emotional coping skills, and his or her functioning in society.
