Some children have major difficulties with concentration and/or impulse control. This can affect their learning and social interactions, as well as having a major impact on family life in some cases. A range of causes need to be considered, including the possibility of ADHD +/- related developmental and emotional problems.
The following practitioners at CPMG can be of service in helping assess for and manage children and adolescents with ADHD and related developmental and emotional problems:
