ADHD Treatment in Medford, NJ

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder is something a lot of people think of as an issue in children that makes it hard for them to sit down and listen. However, that's far from the whole truth. It doesn't always manifest with hyperactivity, and adults can experience it as well. If ADHD is interfering with your life, contact Camille Palombo, a licensed professional counselor, for an in-person appointment in Medford, NJ, or an online visit.

Understanding ADHD

ADHD is a neurodevelopmental disorder that causes issues with a person’s attention span. You may feel like you move excessively and miss a lot of details when you’re working on something, and sometimes, it can cause impulsivity, which occurs when you interrupt others when they speak or act before you think about the consequences.

Adults don’t just develop this issue as they age. Instead, you probably had signs of it when you were younger, but it went undiagnosed. 

The symptoms can improve as you get older, but that doesn't happen in all cases. 

Knowing the Signs

You may notice you have trouble sustaining concentration during a task that requires your focus. 

Other signs you may have ADHD include the following:

• Difficulty prioritizing
• Struggling to remain organized
• Having poor time management skills
• Having difficulty multitasking
• Getting frustrated easily 
• Experiencing frequent mood swings
• Forgetting things frequently, such as deadlines, or losing objects

Seeking Out Treatment

If the symptoms of ADHD are interfering with your life, seek out ADHD treatment from a counselor in Medford, NJ, like Camille. To make treatment easier to fit into your life, you can opt for online visits, even if you're local, which reduces the need to travel. Or, if you prefer to see somebody face to face, Camille offers treatment in her office as well.

Treatment for ADHD may include psychotherapy to help you manage symptoms and improve your overall quality of life. For instance, through psychotherapy, you can learn what circumstances allow you to manage your time the way you want and become more aware of your impulses. If you’ve developed a negative self-image after living with ADHD for most of your life, you can also work on building up your self-esteem.

Book an appointment with Camille Palombo for an in-office visit in Medford, NJ, if you're nearby, or an online visit if you’re a New Jersey resident. Thriving with ADHD is possible with professional help.
