At Thriveworks, we offer ADHD therapy, which is an effective treatment for managing attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms such as inattention, inability to sit still, and lack of self-control. It can be used as an alternative to ADHD medication or used in tandem.
ADHD therapy works by using behavioral interventions — focusing on helping the individual develop organization skills, improve time management, and work on adaptive behaviors. A range of therapies are effective in helping people manage their ADHD and, sometimes, both individual and family therapy are important, particularly when the individual with ADHD symptoms is a child.
Common symptoms of ADHD include:
ADHD is not a coping mechanism—but is instead affected by both genetics and environmental factors. The skilled therapists at Thriveworks in Mt Pleasant, SC know how to treat the unique triggers and stressors that may influence the severity of someone’s ADHD symptoms.
Yes—many individuals with ADHD live successful, ‘normal’ lives. Individuals with ADHD are not abnormal.
Common approaches to ADHD therapy include medication management, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), behavioral therapy, psychoeducation, and parent training.
ADHD counseling is conducted both in person and online, depending on the individual’s preferences and their therapist’s availability.
The length of ADHD therapy can differ based on individual requirements and treatment objectives, spanning from a few weeks to several months or extending further, contingent on progress and personal needs.
ADHD, or Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, is a condition that can be difficult to understand and manage. The symptoms are varied and sometimes non-specific. The disorder is becoming increasingly more common in children. If your child is exhibiting symptoms or has been diagnosed with ADHD, consider reaching out to Thriveworks Mt. Pleasant for help.
For a child to be diagnosed with ADHD, they must exhibit at least six of the following symptoms for a period of six months or more. The combination of these symptoms generally interferes with the child’s everyday functioning and development. If your child exhibits a number of these behaviors, meeting with a therapist at Thriveworks Mt. Pleasant Counseling is a good step to take.
Trying to help a child struggling with symptoms of ADHD can easily cause frustration. Without treatment, the disorder can have a negative impact on the child: low grades, self-esteem issues, problems getting along with peers, poor self-image, anxiety, and disciplinary problems at school.
The therapists at Thriveworks Mt. Pleasant Counseling are specially trained to help you and the child with ADHD understand the disorder. This is an essential step in learning how to manage impulses and other problematic behavior caused by ADHD. We work with the child to help them strengthen social skills, improve their ability to focus, and build positive peer relationships. Many types of therapies can be used to treat ADHD. Medication is not needed in every case. Behavior therapy is often used to treat children with the disorder. This type of therapy helps to reduce negative behaviors and increase positive ones. Over time, behavior therapy can eliminate problem behaviors entirely. Behavior therapy also gives parents skills and strategies to help their child who has ADHD.
If you’d like to talk to a therapist now about how we can help you and your child with ADHD, call us to schedule an appointment. Our phone number is 843-606-6223.
