NSU ADHD Assessment, Consultation and Treatment Program

Our goal is to consistently deliver effective, sciencebased solutions to common problems affecting ADHDdiagnosed children and their families. One important assumption made in our clinic concerns the need for parental leadership and willingness to make changes in the home environment and/or family management practices. A key assumption of our model is that parents are important agents of change. However, while we view parents as “response able,” we do not assign blame or waste valuable time in treatment attempting to determine who is at fault for child problems. Instead, we focus on helping families to better use available resources and begin moving toward solutions.
