Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is characterized by an ongoing pattern of inattention and/or hyperactivity-impulsivity that interferes with functioning or development. A thorough evaluation and diagnosis is provided through primary care providers or mental health professionals, such as a psychiatrist or clinical psychologist.
For many people who are seeking an integrative medicine approach or a natural approach first to ADHD can be a challenge – usually with knowing where to start. Since every individual has a unique combination of causative factors to ADHD symptoms, a personalized assessment and lab testing approach is the most suitable first step to figure out your needs.
