The Attention Deficit Disorders Institute is a highly specialized
muli-disciplinary group formed to respond to the complex needs of
clients with attentional, social and emotional problems including
AD/HD. These difficulties are often associated with learning and behavioral
problems. It is essential to sort out which problems have their basis
in AD/HD and which do not. Clients may take advantage of the expertise
of the entire group in order to design comprehensive diagnosis and
a workable treatment plan. The Group consists of experts in learning
disabilities and special education, child, adolescent and adult psychiatry,
psychology, neuropsychology, art therapy, group, marital and family
therapy. Our ultimate goal is to offer an umbrella under which families,
involved professionals and school personnel may collaborate to achieve
the best results.
