Does your child have problems with his or her attention span, impulse control, and/or activity level?
Typical behaviors include:
- fidgeting or squirming;
- difficulty remaining seated when required;
- distractibility;
- difficulty waiting for turns in groups;
- difficulty staying on task with chores or play activities;
- difficulty playing quietly;
- excessive talking;
- inattention; and
- engaging in physically dangerous activities without considering the consequences.
If your child exhibits any of these symptoms he/she could have Attention-Decifit/Hyperactivity Disorder – more commonly known as ADHD. It requires specialized treatment that promotes understanding and skills development. We have the experts on staff that can help implement a program of success for you and your child or adolescent.
The Center for Personal and Family Growth offers individualized treatment:
- clinical assessment and behavioral planning;
- child/adolescent/parent education and counseling;
- problem-solving and social skills training.
In addition, we also offer:
- psychological evaluations;
- individual and family therapy;
- school consultation/recommendations;
- coordination of services when other providers are involved.
The scope of evaluation and treatment is based on individual needs. We emphasize group skills training and education for the child/adolescent and parents as the most effective and cost-efficient treatment approach.
