Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder
What Is Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)?
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, better known as ADHD, is a brain disorder that many face today. In fact, the American Psychiatric Association (APA) reports that around 5% of children in the United States have the disorder. ADHD can develop in childhood or adulthood and is characterized by the inability to focus and/or hyperactivity, as well as impulsive behavior. These symptoms can make everyday life difficult, and learning how to manage them can be hard. We’re here to help families understand the symptoms and management of ADHD. We have helped countless families learn how to navigate an ADHD diagnosis in their family. Contact Serenity Mental Health Centers to learn how to manage the disorder.
How Is ADHD Treated?
Typically, ADHD can be treated with medication. Prior to starting treatment, we will perform an ADHD diagnostic test to diagnose the disorder correctly. A blend of the three treatment methods is often used. It can sometimes take a bit of trial and error to find the right treatment method, but we are here to guide our patients every step of the way.
ADHD Reviews
Been seeing Scott Akridge for my routine ADHD checkups since moving out to the Denver area a year ago. He has been fantastic to work with, has been very knowledgeable about current advancements in treatment, and has shown genuine interest in my state of being and mental health. Would definitely recommend him to anyone who is curious about seeking counseling and treatment for ADHD.
It took me 3 different doctors to find someone that could help my son with ADHD. Dr. Porter is incredible! He's knows his stuff inside and out. He actually knew what Misophonia is! It was worth the work to find him. I recommend him to everyone. If you're considering setting up a visit, just do it. He listens and spends time talking.
I went here initially to treat my adhd and then I was introduced to TMS and Ketamine therapies so I went back to treat my depression and anxiety. This has been such a great facility to go to for all of the above. The staff is so kind, professional, and goes above and beyond for their patients. These folks truly want their patients to succeed and I can see that. I highly recommend checking this place out. To the staff, thank you all for being the best at what you do! You’ve given me a stellar opportunity and the tools to continue my journey.
My first meeting with Dr. Lundmark was great, he was thorough and eager to get me started on a treatment plan for my ADHD. The staff is all nice and the whole process is pretty efficient.
Good support for my ADHD, but scheduling can be a hassle.
