ADHD has nothing to do with intelligence. Many brilliant people also have ADHD and are highly successful because they have learned to effectively manage their ADHD symptoms. Sadly, many people attempt to manage ADHD symptoms with medication alone, only to realize that it is not sufficient. Overwhelmingly, the evidence indicates that although medication is helpful for many people with ADHD, symptoms are best managed when behavior strategies are also developed through therapy.
We can help you incorporate behavior strategies that include indentifying adverse effects of ADHD, picking up on social cues, creating organizational techniques, enhancing listening skills, modifying overactive behavior, and techniques to minimizing impulsiveness and procrastination. We help you experience authentic symptom relief with behavior modification that compliments the benefits you may get from medication.
