Child ADHD Counseling
Welcome to West Houston Counseling, where we are dedicated to empowering children, families, and teens to navigate the challenges of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). As a company with many of our clinicians specializing in ADHD, we are committed to providing comprehensive child ADHD counseling that goes beyond conventional approaches. Let’s delve into what ADHD is, how to identify it in children and teens and the innovative therapy interventions offered.
Understanding ADHD:
ADHD is a neuro-developmental disorder affecting children and teen’s ability to focus, control impulses, and regulate their energy levels appropriately. Essentially ADHD is an overload disorder where the person finds it challenging to focus, self-monitor, respond to instructions, and regulate their nervous system. Identifying ADHD not only involves in recognizing persistent patterns of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity that interfere with daily functioning, but it also involves regulating feelings of overwhelm, avoidance patterns, and an irritable nervous system. While it’s common for all humans to exhibit these behaviors occasionally, in ADHD, they occur consistently and significantly impact academic, social, and personal areas of life.
Therapy Interventions:
1. LENS Neurofeedback:
LENS (Low Energy Neurofeedback System) is a cutting-edge neurofeedback technique that helps regulate brain activity. By providing real-time information to the brain, LENS assists in optimizing neural functioning, leading to improved attention, focus, and emotional regulation in children and teens with ADHD.
2. Parent Coaching:
Parental involvement is crucial in managing child ADHD counseling. Through personalized coaching sessions, parents learn effective strategies to support their child, create structured routines, and foster a positive home environment. Empowering parents enhances the overall success of ADHD therapy.
3. Skills Coaching:
ADHD counseling involves equipping children and teens with practical skills to enhance their executive functioning. Our ADHD coaching program can help teach organizational skills, time management skills, self- monitoring skills, regulation skills and more. These interventions empower children and adults to navigate challenges more effectively.
4. Emotional Regulation Techniques:
Emotional dysregulation often accompanies ADHD. Therapy focuses on teaching children and teens coping strategies and emotional regulation techniques to manage frustration, anxiety, and impulsive reactions, fostering emotional resilience.
At WHCC, we recognize the uniqueness of each individual and tailor interventions to their specific needs. By combining LENS Neurofeedback, ADHD coaching, skills training, and emotional regulation techniques, we aim to create a holistic and effective approach to managing ADHD. Together, we can unlock your full potential and pave the way for a more peaceful future. Contact us today to embark on this transformative journey toward growth and well-being.
