At CHS Therapy, we provide personalized ADHD treatment for clients in Lowell, Billerica, Chelmsford, Tewksbury, and throughout the Merrimack Valley, with a focus on enhancing quality of life, improving focus, and supporting success at school, work, and home.

Our team of licensed therapists, counselors, and medical professionals are experienced in helping individuals and families manage the challenges of ADHD through comprehensive assessments, therapy, and integrative care planning.

What Is ADHD?

ADHD is a neurodevelopmental disorder marked by patterns of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. These symptoms can vary in intensity and may appear differently in children versus adults. While some individuals may struggle with staying focused or following through on tasks, others may have difficulty with hyperactivity or emotional regulation.

Without effective treatment, ADHD can impact:

  • Academic or job performance

  • Relationships with family, friends, and coworkers

  • Self-esteem and emotional regulation

  • Time management and organization

  • Daily routines and long-term goals

At CHS Therapy, we understand the complexity of ADHD and how it can manifest differently in each person. Our team takes a holistic and individualized approach to treatment.

ADHD Treatment Services We Offer

Our ADHD treatment programs are tailored to meet the unique needs of each client and may include:

1. Comprehensive Evaluation and Diagnosis

We start with a thorough diagnostic process to understand the individual’s history, symptoms, and functioning. This may include:

  • Clinical interviews

  • Behavior rating scales

  • Input from teachers, parents, or caregivers (for children)

  • Review of medical, educational, or psychological records

Our goal is to determine an accurate diagnosis and create a customized plan that addresses each client’s specific needs.

2. Individual Therapy for ADHD

Therapy can help individuals with ADHD learn skills to manage symptoms and develop coping strategies. Our therapists use evidence-based modalities such as:

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Helps clients develop awareness of negative thought patterns and replace them with more effective behaviors.

  • Behavioral Therapy: Focuses on reinforcing positive behaviors and reducing problematic ones through structured routines and goal-setting.

  • Executive Function Coaching: Teaches skills such as time management, organization, planning, and prioritization.

3. Family Counseling

ADHD doesn’t only impact the individual—it affects the entire family. We offer family counseling to:

  • Improve communication and understanding

  • Reduce conflict and misinterpretation

  • Provide parents with tools to support children with ADHD at home

4. Medication Management

For some clients, medication is an effective component of treatment. We offer access to board-certified psychiatric providers who can:

  • Prescribe and monitor ADHD medications

  • Provide education on benefits and side effects

  • Work collaboratively with clients and therapists to ensure comprehensive care

5. School and Workplace Support

ADHD can pose challenges in structured environments like school and work. We provide:

  • Letters of support for 504 Plans or IEPs

  • Strategies for improving attention and behavior in classrooms or professional settings

  • Guidance on self-advocacy and accommodations
