ADD/ADHD
I am currently a psychotherapist working with children and families, and passed the Vermont State Licensure exam in Psychology in March, 2012. When tutoring a child with problems of attentional focus and self-control, I find it desirable to engage the child's family in modifying the child's non-academic problems, so that learning may proceed with less difficulty. My first exposure to the behavioral profile that is now known as ADHD was in 1971, at a state hospital in Pennsylvania. I have treated many children who have received diagnoses of ADHD, or who exhibited the behaviors associated with that disorder. In most cases, improvements may come quickly if we address cognitive-emotional burdens the child may be experiencing, and looking for improvements in the child's environment and mental hygiene. These may include exposure to family conflict, bullying or other peer conflict, lack of sleep, too much use of electronic devices, etc.)
