DFW Mental Health Treatment Programs for Children Suffering From ADHD
Partial Hospitalization Program+
Our PHP+ day treatment program includes a minimum of 4 hours of therapy daily, two visits weekly with a psychiatrist, weekly individual therapy, and the opportunity to complete schoolwork during program hours. This level of care is designed to provide your child with the opportunity to develop coping skills that can help manage their symptoms and decrease the likelihood of their symptoms escalating to the point of needing inpatient treatment.
Intensive Outpatient Program+
Our IOP+ day program includes a minimum of 3 hours of therapy daily, weekly visits with a psychiatrist, weekly individual therapy, and the opportunity to complete schoolwork during program hours. IOP+ is often a step-down level of care for children transitioning from the PHP+ program; however, a child can also be admitted directly to this level of care.

ADHD Assessment for DFW Children & Adolescents
How DFW Kids With ADHD Can Benefit From PHP+ & IOP+

ADHD Medication for Dallas-Fort Worth Children
We treat ADHD with the whole child in mind. Children and adolescents have bodies and brains that are still developing, and because of this, our Dallas-Fort Worth medical staff is thoughtful and intentional in the recommendation and prescribing of ADHD medications. Through the utilization of genetic testing, we are able to gain insights into which medications may have the greatest efficacy and apply this knowledge in the guidance of current and future medications.
