If you are concerned your child might have ADHD, the first step is to visit your GP. Your GP may refer your child to a paediatrician if they are not already seeing one, or a child psychologist or psychiatrist for further assessment and diagnosis. If your child is diagnosed with ADHD, you and your health professional will work together to develop a management plan. This may include behavioural strategies, medication, or a combination of the two. For support managing the symptoms of ADHD, or if a diagnosis is required, call 3067 9129 today for an appointment with one of our child psychologists.
