ADHD and ADD

About Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder  (ADHD/ADD):

Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity disorder (ADHD/ADD) can cause huge stress in a person’s life due to an inability to achieve life’s goals.

It may include the following characteristics:

  • Not being able to pay attention to desired goals
  • Difficulty organizing tasks
  • Inability to  concentrate and focus on tasks
  • Not being able to sit quietly and achieve one’s goals
  • May need to be constantly on the go
  • Inability to sit still for extended periods of time

What treatment options are available?

Dr. Goldstein’s compassionate approach to treatment encompasses many different avenues, depending on your unique situation. Medications do not work instantly and frequently take time to be totally effective.  Sometimes medications may need to be changed when they are not working. In addition usually in order to achieve the best results medication management should be combined with psychotherapy.
