Guiding clients with ADD/ADHD is a great privilege. Being in the world in the way we call ADD/ADHD can feel like a curse or a blessing,
depending on how you deal with it. There are many benefits to be had, if you learn the skills to deal with your own/your child's ADD/ADHD and
new ways of thinking about it. Click the link below for the characteristics that typically indicate ADD/ADHD and other useful tips. Therapy
provides a safe place to reflect on one's existence and learn new skills, while attaining a wider perspective that presents new options,
opportunities, and solutions.

The client's individual needs guide the psychologist in selecting a number of therapeutic techniques to increase the client's overall level of
coping, contentment and well-being. In ADD/ADHD therapy, emphasis is placed on working out practical ways of developing ways of
interacting with others in the most productive and constructive way as well as creating congruent systems and easy order in what is usually
a somewhat chaotic lifestyle.
