Living with ADHD. Overcome the barriers. You will be assessed and individual treatment plan will be formulated to address your needs.
Individual therapy treatment plan is based on cognitive-behavioral, solution focused, psychodynamic, and existential theories. Treatment may be improved with a combination of one or more of the following, couples therapy or group therapy. The Couple therapy program is for those who want professional help for building a healthy relationship. During therapy I will help you to identify and explore th
e patterns of belief and behaviors in roles and relationships which seem to have become set over time, and to enable you to decide where change would be desirable and to facilitate the process of establishing new and more fulfilling patterns. It can be used to gain more insight into each other, to learn new and more effective ways of communication, and to learn how to solve problems. Partners who make a real relationship work have certain skills. They know and practice core interpersonal skills, which allows them to form a relationship that can endure, deepen, and grow. I, whilst often actively intervening in client systems, strive to maintain a non-blaming and neutral position, respecting differences of culture, race, gender, sexual orientation etc. Therapy is often relatively short-term. Only Face to face counseling. Psychological assessment focuses on assessing the normal and abnormal nature of a person's overall functioning. The specific nature of these evaluations varies depending on the issues to be addressed, but they involve at least the following components:
· clinical interview
· mental status examination
· psychological tests
These evaluations can be brief, with the psychological testing limited to one or two short questionnaires which focus on specific concerns, or they can be long, comprehensive evaluations consisting of lengthy objective and projective measures of personality.

Inattention, disorganization, and lack of focus are symptoms that are shared by many other disorders, like depression, anxiety, learning disorders.
Psychological Testing is important to establish the primary cause of lack of focus and attention.
I use a variety of standardized tests in this diagnostic process.
My goal is to determine whether the attention problems appear similar to those exhibited by others with ADHD.
I look for the presence of learning disorders and/or emotional issues that may be causing or contributing to the symptoms.
Along with a detailed history, this process gives me a thorough picture upon which to base our diagnosis and recommendations for treatment, whether the symptoms are caused by a frank intentional deficit or by some other underlying problem.
