ADHD (Attention-Deficit / Hyperactivity Disorder)
ADHD (Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder) is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects focus, impulse control, and regulation of attention.
Rather than simply being “distracted” or “hyper” it’s a difference in how the brain processes and prioritizes information.
People with ADHD often experience a mix of challenges (like forgetfulness, difficulty with organization, or restlessness) and strengths (like creativity, hyperfocus, and quick problem-solving).
An Integrative Approach to ADHD
If you have ADHD, you may feel as if you live in a world that wasn’t designed to help you succeed.
At hol+, we will help you, or your child, attain a fulfilling, balanced life with ADHD. With our holistic approach, our team of integrative providers will work with you to create an individualized ADHD treatment plan. This may include ADHD supplements and medication, diet & lifestyle changes, and more.
Most people with ADHD begin to struggle with their symptoms in school, although they don’t always receive a diagnosis. Most kids with ADHD will continue to experience symptoms as teenagers and most still have symptoms into adulthood, which is why functional support is key to learning how to manage ADHD symptoms.
ADHD can show up in three different types:
- Inattentive
- Hyperactive/Impulsive
- Combined
ADHD is lifelong, but with the right strategies and support, it can be managed in a way that turns unique brain patterns into an asset.

Treating ADHD with Integrative Medicine
There are 3 main treatment options once you or your child are diagnosed with ADHD. You and your integrative medicine provider will work together to determine which is most effective for you or your child.
Approaches include:
- Medication – Stimulants or non-stimulants can help manage focus and attention by blocking out distractions.
- Behavior therapy – Time-management and organization techniques for children, parents, and individuals.
- Lifestyle and diet changes – Functional therapies to treat ADHD naturally, or to maximize the effectiveness of medication.
ADHD supplements to support cognition and focus:
While it’s tempting to label one approach as the best way to treat ADHD, remember that each individual’s behavioral issues are unique, and the goal is to find the most effective approach—or combination of approaches—that works best to support them.
Each patient diagnosed with ADHD receives personalized care from holistic doctors, and may benefit from treatment options including, but not limited to:
- Nutritional deficiency testing
- Diet and ADHD supplement evaluation/recommendations
- Gut function and microbiome health
- Medication management
- Behavioral or cognitive therapy
