Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)

What Is It?

ADHD is not just a behavior problem, but a complex multifactor problem that significantly impacts a person’s life. Everyday life functioning, social engagement, and self-esteem are impacted by the frustrations ADHD causes. It is important for supervisors, teachers, parents, peers and those with ADHD to understand the complexity of the disorder. People experience ADHD differently, and no two cases are alike. Some interventions may work for one person, but be ineffective for another.

What Can Be Done for ADHD?

HappyNeuron Pro is designed to be used as a tool that provides stimulating content to practice cognitive skills. With ADHD, working memory, attention, and executive functioning are compromised. Therapists can use HappyNeuron Pro exercises to build these areas of cognition with their clients and help them transfer strategies their clients use to complete exercises to their daily lives. Assist your patient in building organizational skills, memory, and step-by-step processing. These skills are key as people with ADHD have difficulty finishing tasks, thoughts, and actions which can cause them to miss information that is relevant to them and their situation. By designing a workout plan that incorporates executive function, visual attention, verbal memory, visual memory, and auditory memory, you can help your patient strengthen these skills and guide them in applying them to everyday life.
