Letting your ADHD go without a plan is a bad idea. Once you have your ADHD diagnoses in your hands, the treatment for ADHD is the next, important step.

I will never forget the moment whenever we first got Branden’s ADHD diagnoses. It was scary and relief all rolled into one big emotion. Treatment for ADHD doesn’t have to be complicated, but it can be a lot of trial and error to get things started. Having an ADHD support community is also a wonderful thing, but keep in mind that what works for someone else might not always work for you. The most important piece to the puzzle is having a plan, to begin with, and sticking with what works best for you and your family.

The Importance of Treatment For ADHD
Last week, I shared the full scoop on how easy it is to diagnose ADHD right from the comfort of your own home with my friends at ADHD Online. Once you have that diagnosis, the next step is treatment. And boy is the treatment for ADHD important!
ADHD Online offers medication management, virtual counseling, form completion, cognitive behavioral therapy, neurofeedback, and many more treatment options.
While you are thinking about making your decision on the treatment for children with ADHD, I wanted to share with you the path that we started on and where we are now with Branden. If you have followed along our journey from the beginning, you know that we first started down the medication route whenever Branden was first diagnosed, in late 2018, things were bad. Like really bad. So we started him on medication immediately. After we finally got things under control and into a good routine, we eventually took him off the medication and switch to behavioral therapy, which is where we’re at now.
However, thanks to ADHD Online there are so many, incredible options for families, and most of which can be done right in your own home – which we all know is super important right now.

If you opt for the medication route, you can explore ADHD treatment options with ADHD Online. Virtual counseling is another wonderful option that they offer where you or your child (whoever had the ADHD diagnoses) can virtually have sessions with their licensed psychologists who are experts in their field. I just want to reiterate that last part because not all psychologists that you speak with will be experts in managing ADHD. Just sayin’.
ADHD Online’s Cognitive Behavior Therapy is a wonderful addition to your treatment for ADHD. They work directly with Neurocore Brain Performance Centers, who again, are experts in the field of cognitive behavioral therapy, and have helped thousands of individuals who have ADHD.
And lastly, their Neurofeedback Services are unlike any other. What are these exactly? Neurofeedback is something that provides immediate feedback from a computer-based program that assesses a child or adults brainwave activity. The program uses visual or sound signals to reorganize or retrain those brain signals. By responding to this process, patients learn to regulate and improve their brain function and to alleviate symptoms such as ADHD. And not only does it help with ADHD, but they have helped thousands of people improve their mood, stress, and focus.

Here’s the thing: if you are anything like me, you like options. Knowing that there are all of these options out there for treatments for ADHD gives me peace of mind. The fact that this can all be done in our living room or even Branden’s bedroom is a huge bonus. Less running around? Treatment for ADHD taken care? Count this mama in.
XOXO,
