Evidence-based Assessments & Therapy for ADHD
ADHD, also known as Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, is a developmental difference that alters the brain’s capacity to regulate emotion and attention. While some symptoms are easily recognized, such as difficulty concentrating or needing to move/fidget, many signs of ADHD go unnoticed.
