ADHD Mental Health Services

When a child is diagnosed with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), parents often have concerns about which treatment is right for their child. ADHD can be managed with the right treatment. There are many treatment options, and what works best can depend on the individual child and family.  To find the best options, it is recommended that parents work closely with others involved in their child’s life—healthcare providers, therapists, teachers, coaches, and other family members.

Types of treatment for ADHD include

• Behavior therapy, including training for parents; and
• Medications.

Behavioral health is the scientific study of the emotions, behaviors and biology relating to a person’s mental well-being, their ability to function in every day life and their concept of self. “Behavioral health” is the preferred term to “mental health.” A person struggling with his or her behavioral health may face stress, depression, anxiety, relationship problems, grief, addiction, ADHD or learning disabilities, mood disorders, or other psychological concerns. Allow Helping Homes Counseling & Wellness  to help manage behavioral health concerns with treatments such as therapy, counseling, sessions.

Helping Homes Counseling & Wellness offers Play therapy, in which is defined as a method of counseling that utilizes play as a means of communication with children that attempts to resolve psychological challenges.  It has been theorized that play therapy benefits social integrations, emotional modulation, and trauma recovery as well as standard growth and development.

License therapists use specific toys and activities to help children work through problems or issues and have demonstrated positive correlations in a child's ability to feel positive emotions, strengthen attachments to their therapist, and improve verbal or nonverbal communication of feelings.

Based on how the child uses or abuses the CPTI, the therapist can assess that behavior as an indicator for potential root causes of the child's problematic tendencies.

Wellness is being in good physical and mental health. Because mental health and physical health are linked, problems in one area can impact the other. At the same time, improving your physical health can also benefit your mental health, and vice versa. It is important to make healthy choices for both your physical and mental well-being.

Remember that wellness is not the absence of illness or stress. You can still strive for wellness even if you are experiencing these challenges in your life.
