Main Types of ADHD

Three major types of ADHD include:

1. ADHD, inattentive and distractible

2. ADHD, impulsive and hyperactive 

3. ADHD, combined inattentive, distractibility, hyper and impulsive. This is the most common type of ADHD. 

How is ADHD diagnosed?

ADHD is diagnosed through a clinical assessment based on a person’s symptoms, medical history, and relevant social factors. The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5) criteria are typically used as a guideline for diagnosing ADHD. Surveys, computerized tests of attention, and questionnaires (for spouses, parents, teachers) may be used to help with the diagnosis. ADHD is the most commonly diagnosed behavior disorder of childhood.   

What are effective options for treating ADHD?

Neurofeedback training for ADHD is a non-invasive, non-drug treatment designed to help address the underlying causes of ADHD symptoms and develop a more optimal brain functioning.

During neurofeedback training the brain is not stimulated. Instead, neurofeedback is like using a thermometer to take your temperature, as it only records brain activity.

The brainwave activity is then relayed back to the client in a visual form their brain can easily respond to, and only requires clients  to wear a sensor on their head.  

Neurofeeedback training for ADHD helps clients  learn how to self-regulate their brain activity for better concentration and focus, by allowing them to see their brainwave patterns in real-time.

Because neurofeedback produces self-generated responses, the results are typically long-lasting—with many clients reporting life-changing improvement of their ADHD-related symptoms.

For over 20 years I have worked successfully with ADHD clients. 

How does Neurofeedback for ADHD work? 

The goal of our neurofeedback training is to help clients to  improve their brain regulation which enhances focus, concentration, and self-regulation of their behavior. With the help of neurofeedback equipment, patients can learn to strengthen and improve their brain activity required for focus, organization, follow-through, and basic learning functions.

FAQ's

What is ADHD?

ADHD (attention-deficit disorder) is a behavior disorder usually diagnosed in childhood. It is characterized by inattention, impulsivity, and, in some cases, hyperactivity (symptoms usually occur together; however, one may occur without the other). The symptoms of hyperactivity, when present, are almost always apparent by the age of 7. Inattention or attention-deficit may not be evident until a child faces school expectations.

ADHD stands for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, and it is characterized by an inability to focus, pay attention, sit still, control impulses, or self-regulate.

What causes ADHD?

ADHD can be caused by multiple factors, including heredity, head injuries, maternal prenatal substance abuse, and premature childbirth.

Side Effects of ADHD Drugs

 In many cases, ADHD is treated with stimulant medications.  ADHD medications don’t treat the root cause of the problem, which is brain dysregulation. Because of this, patients who discontinue their ADHD medications are likely to see their ADHD symptoms return. Stimulant medications can provide temporary symptom relief but may cause several serious side-effects, including:

  • Insomnia

  • Suppressing growth rate

  • Risk of substance abuse

  • Nervousness

  • Change in personality

  • Loss of appetite

  • Weight loss

  • Headaches

  • Upset stomach

  • Increase in blood pressure/palpitations

Unfortunately, individuals taking

these medications can also develop a tolerance and may require a higher dosage to maintain the same level of symptom reduction. As the dosage increases, so does the probability of the client experiencing the negative side effects listed above. However, with the help of neurofeedback training many clients can achieve symptom reduction without medication.
