ADHD

ADHD is a neurobiological disorder that manifests itself in difficulties with attention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity.

Action for ADHD

Anamnesis and interviewWe collect information about the patient's medical history, development, behaviour, and academic performance.
Use of scales and questionnairesWe use standardised tools to assess the symptoms and behaviours associated with ADHD.
Interdisciplinary collaborationWe work closely with healthcare professionals, such as psychologists and psychiatrists, to obtain an accurate diagnosis and a comprehensive approach to treatment.

Training in sustained attention techniquesWe develop activities that strengthen the patient's ability to maintain concentration on specific tasks.

Use of behaviour modification techniquesWe implement strategies to reinforce positive behaviours and reduce impulsivity.

Use of the token economy: with this technique, we get the child to perform the proposed tasks by using rewards for each thing done well.

Oral language:We work to help children with ADHD express themselves better in their daily lives, so that they do not have problems communicating.

Non-verbal language: The child must also be trained to communicate correctly and know how to use gestures when speaking.

Reading and writing: Children with ADHD often have problems with reading and writing, so we work on this aspect with them as well, providing them with the greatest possible support for their academic development. In addition, we perform a differential diagnosis of ADHD and dyslexia, as these two disorders can sometimes go hand in hand.

Social skills trainingWe work with techniques to improve social interaction, such as recognising non-verbal cues and empathy.
Managing emotions and frustrationsWe provide the tools to identify and control emotions, promoting emotional self-regulation.

Collaboration with teachersWe work together with teachers to implement support strategies in the school environment and adaptations according to the student's needs.
Family guidanceWe provide information and strategies to parents to manage and support their child with ADHD at home.
Advice and continuing educationWe provide guidance to families on resources and strategies that complement ADHD treatment.
