Integrated Treatment for ADHD in Adults and Other Attention Deficit Disorders

Attention-deficit disorders, such as Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), are not just conditions that affects children. The symptoms of ADHD in adults can impact many areas of your life—from your relationships to your career. Adult ADHD often goes unrecognized during childhood, and many adults do not realize that they have this disorder until it severely impacts their lives. Younger people are frequently categorized as poor students, daydreamers, class clowns, slackers, or troublemakers. When you were younger, you may have compensated for the symptoms of ADHD, only to encounter difficulties as an adult as your responsibilities grew.

There is good news despite the overwhelming challenges. Counseling, education, and support can help you manage symptoms and turn potential weaknesses into lifelong strengths.
