Dr. Connie McReynolds, PhD has caused quite the stir in the fields of psychology, psychiatry, and counseling as she has approached the ADHD and ADD diagnoses much differently than most practitioners. Rather than debating the nuances of "does someone HAVE ADHD or not", Dr. Connie has researched and utilized sophisticated Neurofeedback Assessments that differentiate multiple different issues that could be contributing to the largest gestalt (or diagnosis of ADHD): Including multiple tiers of auditory processing disorders, visual processing disorders, general learning disorders, differential medical diagnoses, environmental factors, and overlapping clinical psychological diagnoses. If this sounds intriguing, this is an episode you need to hear and she has written a book that I would recommend reading. Dr. Connie McReynolds, PhD and her team have fearlessly pushed forward into researching the nuances of all types of people tagged with the label "ADHD/ ADD." In going deeper, with their neuropsychological assessments and sophisticated proprietary and targeted neurofeedback treatments, they have discovered that there are a myriad of issues that are contributing to what your average clinician may conclude is ADHD (referencing the DSM or ICD codes). Not only have they been able to figure out the etiology of the symptoms that are contributing to the clinical picture / diagnosis--they have worked on treating these symptoms WITHOUT medications or minimal medications, and also with minimal therapy (unless called for from a crossover of other behavioral, environmental, or psychological factors). Dr. Connie McReynolds' team have had incredible results from only 20 thirty minute targeted neurofeedback subjects who are coming in with a range of ADHD-related symptoms. And 6 and 12 month follow up assessments and subjective reports are just as stunning! However, the idea that you can actually reduce ADHD symptoms for the long-term without extensive medications and behavioral therapies goes against the status quo of most practitioners in the United States. Thus, this has not yet been popularized. It also doesn't cost that much money and the treatment is not life-long, so thus it has not yet been picked up by the typical profiteers. The best news is that the data speaks for itself. From multiple published articles to the examples in Dr. Connie McReynold's book, there is hope for those that suffer from ADHD, auditory processing issues, visual processing disorders, and related issues. A guest on CBS, NBC, and NPR, I recommend checking out her website for a free assessment.
