When ADHD is suspected or diagnosed, many families start with behavioral strategies, coaching, school supports, and healthy routines before considering medication. These are great first steps.

If ADHD begins to affect school, peer relationships, or self-esteem, medication can make a big difference. ADHD medications are generally safe and effective, but finding the right one—and the right dose—can take time. We also consider cost, side effects, pill-swallowing ability, and changing needs as your child grows.

I work closely with families to personalize treatment. With telehealth follow-ups, we can make timely adjustments to ensure the best results. Request appointments through Shoreline Psychology below.
