Childhood and Parental Therapy for Managing ADHD Symptoms in Jericho, NY and Huntington, NY

Children and adults that struggle with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) or executive function disorder often find themselves in a world that is not always adapted to their needs and personality. Right Path Counseling can provide both children and adults with the tools and strategies to overcome some of the pressures and challenges that they may face.

  • Do you feel like others have expectations that your child struggles to meet?
  • Do you or your child worry that they are falling short or disappointing their peers?

  • Do you struggle with feeling hopeful about what the future will bring?

Our offices each have ADHD therapists that work individually with children, their parents, or the family as a whole to provide psychological support to learn to cope with and address the pressures that society gives to people with ADHD. Located near Hicksville, Syosset, and Plainview, and beyond, Right Path is here to help. Start by calling us at (516) 247-6457 or using our online form to get in touch with our team.

    Why Choose Right Path Counseling for Therapy for ADHD?

    Managing ADHD through medications may make it possible to control some of the symptoms of ADHD, but not the effects of it. Psychotherapy for ADHD – both for children and their caregivers – helps set up every family member for success in the future.

    Right Path Counseling offers support to parents, children, families, and even teachers that are learning to support those with ADHD and help obtain better lifelong psychological outcomes. We have different therapies available depending on the struggles, including:

    • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
    • Psychoanalytic Theory
    • Mindfulness
    • Behavior Modification, and Other Modalities

    We also provide a listening ear, as our ADHD therapists understand that the struggles that people go through are all different, and the solutions may not be the same for each person.

Our psychotherapists on Long Island use a caring, adaptive approach to help make sure that you get the support that you need as your own unique individual. Children and adults that have ADHD find that they are better able to:

    • Cope with hostile or unwanted emotions from others.
    • Learn how to communicate their feelings and experiences.
    • Maintain social relationships.
    • Find new ways to adapt to their ADHD experiences.

    Parents find that they are:

    • More patient when something isn’t going forward as expected.
    • Mindful of their emotions and how that may affect their child.
    • Better able to identify ways to provide support and care.
    • Able to learn to relax and still enjoy time with their partner and children.
    • More capable of parenting multiple children and managing work/life needs.

    ADHD may not have a specific cure, but that does not mean that it has to lead to significant life disruption. Often, all it takes is a helpful, guiding hand to put you on the right path toward managing ADHD related experiences.
