ADHD Treatment in San Diego
ADHD is a common diagnosis, with symptoms of a short attention span, poor concentration, distractibility, restlessness, hyperactivity, poor organization, and forgetfulness. ADHD typically lends itself to school and socio-emotional difficulties related to academics, peers, and family functioning.
Assessments
It is important to know that ADHD can be easily misdiagnosed without a formal assessment. A clinical interview is usually insufficient, as symptoms presenting as ADHD could be related to underlying anxiety, stress, learning disabilities, executive functioning, trauma, and even giftedness.
Hence, we offer a comprehensive evaluation and assessment for ADHD before providing a diagnosis and treatment, to more accurately understand and treat the presenting struggles.
