I can provide tools for you and your child to manage the symptoms of ADHD.
Symptoms of ADHD
ADHD (attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder) is a common condition that impacts a child’s ability to focus, control impulses, and manage daily tasks. While signs of ADHD present differently between genders, some common symptoms include the following:
- Difficulty paying attention
- Hyperactivity, fidgeting, or restlessness
- Impulsivity
- Forgetfulness
- Problems with organization
- Issues with time management
These symptoms can lead to challenges in school, home, and social environments. Our ADHD therapists are dedicated to helping young individuals manage their symptoms with a range of evidence-based treatments so they can lead balanced lives.
My Treatment Methods
True North Counseling Services specializes in comprehensive ADHD therapy tailored to the unique needs of children and adolescents. The following approaches are used during their sessions:
- Play therapy, which uses toys and games to help children build the skills necessary to express emotions, resolve conflicts, and improve focus, behavior, and organization
- Sand tray therapy, which involves creating scenes in a sandbox to reveal subconscious thoughts and feelings
- Art therapy, which integrates creative expression into therapy through drawing, painting, or sculpture
Play therapy offers numerous therapeutic benefits and can help families practice techniques and skills to build stronger relationships. True North Counseling Services can help parents and children identify and resolve communication issues to foster positive family interactions. In addition to these methods, individual sessions for parents are offered.
