The Center for Attention Deficit Disorders

The Center for Attention Deficit Disorders is a comprehensive program developed by Christian Psychotherapy Services to diagnose and treat attentional difficulties and related disorders in children, adolescents and adults.

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) can be a devastating dysfunction, not only to the person who has it, but also to their family and friends. Since symptoms include poor concentration, restlessness, distractibility, impulsiveness, hyperactivity, forgetfulness…their impact can cause the ADHD sufferer to do poorly in school and work.  In addition, symptoms of poor anger control, poor time management, disorganized lifestyle, a tendency to interrupt others in conversation…can impair relationships with significant others such as parents, siblings, peers, spouses and employers.
