ADD and ADHDIs your child easily frustrated even by minor things? Does your child get mad easily and take even gentle kidding personally? Does your child have difficulty making and keeping friends? Do you find yourself frustrated and angry because your child doesn’t pay attention or won’t be still no matter what you do? Does your school report that your child doesn’t stay in their seat, “socializes too much” or is disruptive? Your child may suffer from ADD/ADHD. ADD/ADHD is neurologically based. In other words, it occurs in the brain and is related to brain chemistry. As we all know, ADD/ADHD is over diagnosed, but if there is a concern, a proper and thorough assessment is important. At Innovative Counseling PA we are trained in accurately diagnosing ADD/ADHD. We observe and interview the family, administer psychological tests, and contact the school and pediatrician, if indicated.
