[quote=Anonymous]On understood.org and other websites, I have read that cognitive behavioral therapy can be helpful for children with ADHD. Right now, our DS age 7 with ADHD (& dyslexia) is being treated with stimulants and we usually give him daily fish oil supplements. School is also providing accommodations that are very helpful. Recently, he has seemed more anxious about a variety of school-related issues and he has been sleeping poorly. I'm wondering if CBT is an approach that could help him, both to talk through anxieties and to learn to manage his impuses better. He is definitely pretty impulsive although he is less hyperactive. If your child with ADHD has gone to CBT, how did you find a therapist? Would you recommend your therapist to work with a lower elementary aged child?[/quote]
