At the UC Davis MIND Institute and Children's Hospital, Dr. Leckliter serves children who are affected by a broad range of conditions, including Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, autism spectrum disorder; 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 MIND Institute.
