Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)

Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a common neurodevelopmental condition that impacts both children and adults. It is characterized by persistent patterns of inattention, hyperactivity, and/or impulsivity that interfere with daily functioning and development.

If you or a loved one are struggling with symptoms that may be related to ADHD, Dr. Tomasula is trained to assess for ADHD and has the expertise to understand when those symptoms are better explained by other conditions, such as anxiety or sleep disturbances. This comprehensive assessment includes clinical interviews, testing sessions with the client, behavior rating scales, and a thorough review of medical and academic/occupational histories.

If you have already been diagnosed and are looking to find a plan that helps you manage your life, working with Dr. Tomasula can make a significant difference in managing symptoms and improving quality of life.

We work together to identify and use realistic coping strategies to regulate your emotions. With this solid foundation, we are able to develop strategies to manage impulsivity/inattentiveness and improve decision-making. Improved decision-making then allows for us to build your social skills in order to improve communication, conflict resolution, and relationship-building skills. We also work to identify and implement practical skills to manage daily tasks and responsibilities effectively.

Managing ADHD can be challenging, but with the right support, it will become your superpower. If you or a loved one is struggling with ADHD symptoms, consider reaching out to us at LiveWell Psychology. Professional guidance can provide the tools and strategies needed to lead a more organized, focused, and fulfilling life.
