What does ADHD look like?
Those with ADHD have difficulty with self-regulation, which can impact their ability to focus, concentrate and control impulses. It isn’t that they can’t ever focus, rather they hyper-focus on areas of interest but are unable to focus in non-preferred or “boring” areas.
Other symptoms can include distractibility, difficulty controlling emotions and managing frustration, hyperactivity, friendship and relationship difficulties, and problems with working memory, time management, organization, and executive functioning.* ADHD starts in childhood and persists throughout life.
How we can treat ADHD/ADD
Neurofeedback and Biofeedback are research-tested, non-medication, and holistic approaches. More than 3,000 studies since the early 1970’s support the effectiveness of Neurofeedback in treating ADHD.
How can Neurofeedback help?
Neurofeedback teaches the brain self-regulation, something people with ADHD lack, in a pleasant yet highly effective way. They typically have too many unfocused brain waves and not enough focused brain waves. Neurofeedback can alter the amount of and ratios of these waves to help retrain the brain and therefore reduce symptoms.
How can Biofeedback help?
Biofeedback is designed to help the Central Nervous System (CNS) to calm down so one can more readily engage. For those with ADHD, their CNS is often easily under stimulated or overstimulated. Biofeedback uses subtle changes in the body to consciously register mindful acts leading to self-regulation.*
How can counseling help?
Behavioral therapy, parent coaching, and executive functioning training gives you the tools to learn new, more productive ways to deal with behaviors. We combine psychoeducation with research-based tools that empower parents and children for change.
