Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a common neurodevelopmental condition that affects a child’s ability to focus, control impulses, and regulate activity levels. At Samarpan Occupational and Speech Therapy Center, we provide structured and personalized therapy programs to help children with ADHD improve attention span, behavior, and daily functioning. Our goal is to support children in becoming more confident, organized, and independent in their everyday life.
What is Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)?
ADHD is a brain-based condition characterized by symptoms such as inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. Children with ADHD may find it difficult to concentrate, follow instructions, sit still, or complete tasks. These challenges can affect their academic performance, social relationships, and overall development. ADHD can vary in severity and may present differently in each individual.
