Over the past 5 years on my literature search on multiple exceptional needs of the gifted found tons of articles covering brain studies, psychopharmacology, child and adolescent psychiatry, family therapy, psychology and counseling of the gifted, gifted education etc etc. I kept over 100 articles on my laptop for self learning and professional education. Dr. Lovecky's book is the only one reference I found most powerful and resourceful to uncover the amazing mix of Very Superior Intelligence (in the form of Giftedness), Cognitive and Mood Dysregulation (in the form of ADHD) and Social Cognition (in the form of Asperger Syndrome) in the school-aged children. Our services to the gifted in Hong Kong met lots of parents without needed support. This book is a proven resource to these Chinese families with children affected by Asperger Syndrome with or without ADHD. It actually serves as a footstep light for us to see the unique strengths in these children. There'd be a Chinese Version!

Dr. Lovecky tested both my sons, and I was impressed by her careful attention to detail and the depth of her work. She wrote detailed reports with excellent ideas for both my sons and their teachers. One of the teachers at my school said, "This is the best report I have ever read." I recommend her highly.

I wholeheartedly recommend the Gifted Resource Center of New England. I have referred several satisfied clients to this Center. Dr. Lovecky is a leader in the field of assessment and the study of highly gifted children. She is a well-respected author, speaker, examiner, researcher and psychologist who specializes in gifted children; highly, exceptionally and profoundly gifted children; children with learning issues, such as AD/HD, Asperger Syndrome, etc.

Dr. Deirdre Lovecky is the foremost authority in the United States on gifted children with Asperger Syndrome, gifted children with Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder and gifted children with other learning issues. I strongly recommend her as a therapist, as well as a thorough, comprehensive examiner.

Dr. Lovecky's expertise in assessing gifted children is well known and well deserved. She is especially knowledgeable when it comes to determining if a gifted child is twice exceptional. (gifted with learning disabilities) She takes the time to get to know the child and is very thorough in her assessments. Her book "Different Minds: Gifted Children with AD/HD, Asperger Syndrome, and Other Learning Deficits" is filled with valuable information for parent's of 2E children and for professionals in the field of gifted education. It is definitely worth your time to call Dr. Lovecky at the Gifted Resource Center of New England if you are considering having your child tested.
