ADHD
Our team of clinicians have extensive experience in supporting youth with ADHD and their families. We believe in working together as a team to help each individual achieve their own goals. Many services are covered by private insurance.
What is Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)?
At WonderTree, we view Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) as a difference in neurology affecting attention regulation, thinking, processing, and impulse. Many don’t see this as a disorder, instead see it as having differences, particularly as there are many strengths that can go along with the ADHD profile. Neurodivergence should be accepted and understood. We are here to provide support as needed with our multidisciplinary team and services described below.
“It is not our differences that divide us. It is our inability to recognize, accept, and celebrate those differences.” – Audre Lorde
