What is Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and Attention Deficit Disorder(ADD)?
To most adults, all children seem a source of boundless energy and limited focus. How can you tell for sure if your child has a problem with attention, concentration, and keeping themselves still?
dults who find themselves moving from job to job, having difficulty with a new job, or struggling with going back to school often find themselves wondering about Attention Disorders. Sometimes, when their children are diagnosed with ADD or ADHD they start to wonder about themselves. When these adults were children, they were often mislabeled as “lazy,” “unmotivated,” “careless,” "daydreamers” or even “stupid.” They were not given the benefit of what we know today.

Rosemarie Manfredi
Psychologist, Psy.D.
As a neuropsychologist, I have extensive experience in the diagnosis and evaluation of ADHD in children, teens, and adults. I earned a certification as an ADHD-Certified Clinical Services Provider (ADHD-CCSP) in 2020. In my practice, I offer diagnostic evaluations to help determine whether a person has ADHD, as well as more comprehensive evaluations that identify the impact of ADHD on learning, development, and behavior. These more comprehensive evaluations allow me to make specific and individualized recommendations for educational, career, and treatment settings. Additionally, I offer career assessments and guidance for individuals with ADHD in order to help find or craft a career that aligns with their interests, abilities, and skills. Finally, I provide academic and executive function coaching services for adults with ADHD.

Maria Maddalo
Psychologist, Psy.D., BCBA
I specialize in working with children/adolescents with ADHD as it relates to the school and home settings. ADHD causes attention and concentration difficulties in the school setting. It also creates difficulties with parent and peer relationships, and problematic behaviors often manifest as a result. I work with children/adolescents and families to help understand the diagnosis, to create a positive plan for change, and to provide support. I specialize in working collaboratively with parents and teachers to create positive behavioral supports and training on how to improve executive function skills for ADHD. Because children/adolescents with ADHD have executive function difficulties, they need additional help from parents, teachers, and therapists who will provide positive support and encouragement, and NOT punishment.

Lauren Rance
Psychologist, Clinical Psychologist (PsyD, LP)
I take a strengths-based approach and oftentimes reflect how some symptoms of ADHD can serve individuals (i.e., creativity, hyperfocus on tasks you like). We also explore how ADHD symptoms are getting in the way, whether it is motivation difficulties, trouble getting started on tasks, difficulty creating/following a routine or schedule, frequent distraction, communication difficulties, or difficulties managing strong emotions. I then offer executive skills coaching to help build skills in these areas.
