Patients should ask questions. They should inform the doctor if there are side effects or if the medication does not seem to be working. If medication is still not working as expected, it may be time to re-evaluate the diagnosis. Individuals with ADHD may also have other disorders at the same time. Occasionally a medical illness may masquerade as a psychiatric condition.
Medication can only take the individual part of the way to recovery.
Therapy, community support, coaching and the individuals own determination are important parts of treatment. We are located in Northern Baltimore County and serve the Baltimore County, Carroll County and Harford County areas in Maryland. Since we are near the Pennsylvania border, we also serve the York County area. Our services include psychotherapy, psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and family therapy.
