Those With ADHD Can Experience Life Disrupting Challenges

Completing tasks
Moving from one project to the other
Having disturbed interpersonal relationships
And problems with communication

ADHD is one of the more common reasons for academic and workplace failures. The risk of developing an addiction or substance use disorder in those with ADHD is as high as those with depression and anxiety. In fact, this can reach a 60% lifetime risk if untreated.

Unfortunately, there is a misperception that this is a disorder of school-age children only. As a result, those affected with ADD and ADHD often do not seek ADHD treatment.

Ask yourself these questions:

Do you have persistent problems with your focus concentration and memory?
Do you get so distracted that chores, activities, and projects are left unfinished?
Is relationship communication deteriorating because of your inability to stay focused?
Do you often misinterpret what others are saying?

These may be signs of undiagnosed and untreated attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. But, I understand what you’re going through, and I am honored to support you. I offer effective ADHD treatment in New York, NY.

My treatment approach is comprehensive

My treatment approach takes into consideration the psychological, biological, and social aspects of ADHD treatment. I take a deep dive into all medical issues related to ADD/ADHD. Furthermore, I also have appropriate screening and treatment of all psychiatric issues. Together, we work on repairing damaged relationships and trust-building.

Backed by over 25 years of experience

I’ve treated all types of psychiatric issues. And, I have also held several clinical appointments as an assistant professor of psychiatry at area medical schools. Plus, I have achieved the honor and distinction of fellowship status in both the American Psychiatric Association (FAPA) and the American Society of Addiction Medicine (FASAM).

I view ADD/ ADHD as a “family disease” as it can have major effects on those around the addicted. It can affect teens, adults, and children as well. If your relationships are affected, we will aggressively address this. Furthermore, if right for your circumstances, we can get your significant others involved for support outside of our sessions. We may also decide to have family and couples sessions.
