Intellectual disabilities affect people in many ways depending on the specific condition or circumstance. People may be affected by an intellectual disability and a mental health issue simultaneously.
Available Treatment Options
Counselors often work together with a care team of rehabilitation therapists, physical therapists, and other medical staff to formulate a plan for children with intellectual disabilities that promotes their health and gives them support in education and other facets of life.
Counseling interventions may include assisting people in learning daily tasks of living, developing communication skills, processing emotions in healthy ways, and promoting a supported, healthy lifestyle.
