Is Something Off? First Steps When You’re Concerned About Your Child’s Learning

In this episode, Jimelle Carlson sits down with Dr. Shinn, a clinical child psychologist who has spent years helping kids and families navigate learning and developmental challenges. Their conversation feels less like an interview and more like a reassuring chat for parents who are wondering, “Is something off with my child, and what do I do next?” Dr. Shinn breaks down practical first steps—like checking vision and hearing before assuming a learning disorder—and explains why sensory input plays such a big role in how kids learn. They also talk about when to seek evaluations, the difference between public and private testing, and why discovering challenges in middle or high school is actually a gift, not a failure. The big takeaway? It’s never too late to get support, and the right environment can make all the difference. Parents aren’t alone, and small, informed steps can lead to big breakthroughs.
