There have been some changes to my ADHD page and individuals are asked to go directly to the page at my website.  Most important, within the next three months I will be offering Cogmed services, a cognitive rehabilitation and training program for memory and focus issues. This is a computerized program you can use right in your own home under the guidance of one of my staff members. Cogmed is the only computerized training program that has been proven to help with issues of memory and more specifically active or working memory, a key factor in ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder). Stay tuned for the announcement, staff are attending their final training in October!  For more information on CogMed Services for Working Memory Training click here: http://www.cogmed.com/
