ADHD is a neurodevelopmental disorder that begins in childhood, characterized by symptoms of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity.

Symptoms


  • Inattention: Not paying attention to details, daydreaming frequently, losing things.
  • Hyperactivity: Being in constant motion, fidgeting while seated.
  • Impulsivity: Difficulty waiting for one's turn, interrupting others.

What Can Be Done Psychologically?


Psychological support for ADHD should be tailored to the child's needs:
  • Psychological Counseling: The Cognitive Behavioral Approach (CBA) improves attention skills. Play-based work is an important tool for emotional regulation and secure attachment. The EMDR process is a powerful method for reducing the effects of early traumatic experiences.
  • Parent and Teacher Training: Special programs are implemented for families and teachers to understand and guide the child's behavior with appropriate methods.
