Adult ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) is a normal variant in how one’s brain is organized. It is a common condition, and at its core, presents as difficulty maintaining focus and managing one’s impulses. ADHD usually begins during childhood; however, many people are not diagnosed until adulthood. For most people, ADHD is a lifelong condition.ADHD is highly heritable and ADHD brains are different from non-ADHD brains. While brain scans show differences between ADHD and non-ADHD brains, ADHD is diagnosed by well-trained experienced experts.

These could include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Psychodynamic Therapy, or other evidence-based modalities. Our team provides detailed explanations and sets expectations for each approach.
Regular therapy sessions begin, guided by the personalized treatment plan. Our therapists work closely with patients to address their mental health concerns, employing the therapeutic techniques most suited to their needs. Sessions are scheduled to ensure consistency and progress tracking.
Dr. Ryan Sultan and our team provide careful medication management for patients requiring medication as part of their treatment. This includes selecting appropriate medications, monitoring their effectiveness, and adjusting dosages to optimize therapeutic outcomes.

Our commitment to our patients extends beyond the initial treatment phases. We conduct ongoing evaluations to monitor progress and make necessary adjustments to the treatment plan. Continuous support ensures that patients feel supported throughout their journey to mental health wellness, including regular check-ins and follow-up appointments.
