Many treatments have been proposed for ADD/ADHD. None of the treatments are ideal if used alone. The most successful outcomes are usually associated with using several of the treatment options together. Many parents strongly oppose the use of any sort of drug to treat their child with ADD/ADHD.
I have received many inquiries about comparing all the different possible treatments.
I am currently preparing for a teleseminar, in which I will interview experts in each area of treatment, so that you can hear the pros and cons from these experts. I will have experts in the fields of Herbal Rx, Counseling, Coaching, Biofeedback, Vitamins and Supplements, Dietary, Food Allergies, Behavior Modification, Traditional Medication--Stimulants and Non-Stimulants. If you have other areas you are interested in, please email me about it at DrJerry@ADHDStrategies.com.
