Dyslexia
Understanding dyslexia
Dyslexia is a common learning disorder that affects an individualʼs ability to read, write, and spell, often causing difficulties in processing language. Unlike a simple reading problem, dyslexia is rooted in how the brain processes information – making it challenging to recognise words, decode text, and retain information. Many adults with dyslexia may feel frustrated or isolated due to their struggles, impacting their confidence and everyday life.
Despite its prevalence, dyslexia often goes undiagnosed, leading to misconceptions about intelligence and capability. It’s important to understand that dyslexia has nothing to do with a person’s intellect; instead, itʼs a neurological condition that requires specialised, curated strategies for effective management. At Harbor, we take a comprehensive approach to dyslexia – offering personalised treatment plans designed to address the unique challenges faced by each individual.

How we work
The everyday effects of dyslexia for adults
Living with dyslexia as an adult can pose significant challenges in both personal and professional life. Dyslexia often impacts reading and writing abilities – making tasks that require these skills particularly daunting. This can affect job performance, leading to misunderstandings or the perception of incompetence, even when an individual is highly capable. For example, an adult with dyslexia might excel in creative problem-solving but struggle to write clear, concise emails, causing frustration and self-doubt.
The struggles extend beyond the workplace. Everyday activities, such as reading instructions, following maps, or even recognising familiar words, can become sources of anxiety. Social interactions can also be affected, as individuals with dyslexia might avoid reading aloud or participating in discussions that require quick information processing. This can lead to feelings of isolation and a lack of confidence, further exacerbating mental health issues such as anxiety and depression.
Dyslexia is believed to be caused by differences in brain function – particularly in the areas associated with language processing. These differences are often present from birth and can be influenced by genetic factors. Despite being a lifelong condition, the severity and manifestations of dyslexia can vary widely among individuals. But by recognising the unique challenges faced by adults with dyslexia, we aim to create curated treatment plans that address both the practical and emotional aspects of the condition.

Whole-person, curated dyslexia treatment for adults
Dyslexia is a multifaceted condition that impacts many areas of life. Our whole-person, curated dyslexia treatment for adults is designed to address these diverse challenges comprehensively – our approach goes beyond traditional methods, focusing on personalised, multidisciplinary strategies that foster long-term success and wellbeing. One key aspect of our treatment is specialised cognitive training. This helps enhance the brain’s ability to process language, improving reading and writing skills.
For example, through targeted exercises, adults with dyslexia can develop better phonological awareness and decoding skills, which are crucial for reading proficiency. These exercises are tailored to each individual’s needs, ensuring they receive the most effective support. Another vital component is occupational therapy; this focuses on practical skills that can significantly improve daily functioning. Occupational therapists might work on organisational strategies to help adults manage their tasks more effectively, reducing the stress and frustration that often accompany dyslexia.
Emotional support is also integral to our program. Many adults with dyslexia struggle with self-esteem and anxiety due to years of dealing with the condition. Our therapists provide a safe space for individuals to explore these feelings and develop coping mechanisms, and techniques such as mindfulness and cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) can be particularly beneficial in managing the emotional toll of dyslexia. Our whole-person approach also includes lifestyle adjustments and support. We advise on creating an environment that reduces dyslexia-related stress, such as technology aids like text-to-speech software and audiobooks, which can make reading and comprehension more accessible.
