Our treatment
Fortunately, ADHD can usually be treated effectively. Treatment may consist of a combination of Psycho-education, Medication and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) that we use together to best effect.
Psycho-education helps you understand what happens with ADHD and what treatment will do to you. The medication will reduce the symptoms making you feel calmer and better able to concentrate. CBT focuses on addressing behavioral patterns and practical skills with a focus on core ADHD symptoms. The goals will be coordinated with you depending on your individual needs and request for help.
Our treatment team consists of:
- Nursing specialists
- Psychologists
- Psychiatrists
Psycho-education
In Psycho-education, you will receive clear information about the onset and course of ADHD symptoms, the impact of the symptoms on your functioning and what treatment options are available.

What do we do, what don’t we do?
ADHDcentraal is an expert agency in the field of ADHD. ADHDcentraal provides careful, specialized medical diagnostics and treatment in adults. The diagnostic day at ADHDcentral includes tests and components that allow for treatment tailored to the individual. Therefore, we can only accept people who have also completed the diagnostic day with us.
ADHD is often accompanied by other psychological problems such as mood problems, anxiety symptoms, substance use, sleep problems, negative self-image, fear of failure and personality problems. Our treatment focuses primarily on ADHD in adults. Often other symptoms decrease in severity when ADHD is adequately treated. We treat other mental health problems with them unless they appear to be so severe that they are on the forefront, require specialist help, need to be able to provide 24-hour care or have a clinic behind them. Treatment elsewhere is then desirable.
