Understanding ADHD Symptoms
ADHD is a mental health condition affecting individuals differently across life stages. In children, symptoms include difficulty maintaining attention in school, impulsivity, and challenges following instructions. Many adolescents continue experiencing these difficulties as they transition into adulthood.
For adults, common ADHD symptoms include trouble focusing during work tasks, impulsivity in decision-making, and organizational challenges. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, untreated ADHD can lead to secondary problems including anxiety, depression, sleep disorders, and other mental illness. With proper treatment, individuals can develop the skills and strategies needed to thrive.

Comprehensive Treatment Options
Dr. Bullock offers both medication management and therapy services under one roof. Treatment plans include:
Medication Management
ADHD medication remains highly effective for managing symptoms. Dr. Bullock evaluates which medication works best for your needs:
- Stimulants such as methylphenidate and amphetamine-based medications improve focus and reduce impulsivity
- Stimulant medications that are FDA-approved with demonstrated effectiveness
- Non-stimulant options and antidepressants for patients with co-occurring conditions
Each option is discussed during appointments, with clear instructions about proper use and potential effect. Dr. Bullock monitors treatment closely to ensure optimal results.
Psychotherapy and Behavioral Interventions
Therapy plays a crucial role in managing ADHD. Behavioral therapy helps children and adults develop practical skills for organization, time management, and emotional regulation.
Through talk therapy and cognitive behavioral approaches, Dr. Bullock helps patients understand their behavior patterns and develop coping skills. Training in specific techniques empowers patients to work more effectively. For children, behavioral interventions may involve parent training and school collaboration. For adults, therapy focuses on workplace strategies and relationship skills.
Treatment for Children and Adults
Dr. Bullock understands each child with ADHD presents unique challenges. Her comprehensive evaluation identifies specific symptoms and creates personalized treatment plans. For children, treatment combines medication, behavioral therapy, and parent training to help them succeed at school and home. Addressing ADHD early prevents problems later in life and supports healthy development through adolescents into adulthood.
Many adults with adult ADHD went undiagnosed as children. Dr. Bullock helps adults improve attention, manage impulsivity, develop organizational skills, and address co-occurring mental health conditions. Her approach recognizes adults need practical strategies for busy work schedules and family life.
Addressing Co-Occurring Mental Health Conditions
ADHD rarely exists alone. Many individuals also experience anxiety, depression, or other mental illness. Dr. Bullock’s comprehensive approach addresses co-occurring mental health conditions, recognizing effective treatment must consider the whole person.
Her specialized training in trauma-informed care enables integrated treatment. Some patients benefit from guidance on sleep disorders, which complicate ADHD management, and strategies to avoid problematic coping involving alcohol. In addition, Dr. Bullock addresses how ADHD intersects with overall mental health and wellness.
