It’s very difficult to say because her main learning disability is verbal language, which makes it hard to know what else is inherent, and what is just down to the communication difficulty. She can have sensory and OCD issues but generally only when stressed. She doesn’t seem to have much of any intellectual disability (in terms of “mental age” etc.) as she has always had age-appropriate drawing skills, problem solving skills, personal interests etc. but again very difficult to assess because of her language issues.
