Seeking specialist

I’m looking for recommendations for ADHD specialists in the Philadelphia, PA or southern New Jersey area for our 13-year old. It feels like everyone I call either doesn’t take insurance or isn’t accepting new patients. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Good morning, check out Grow Now ADHD. Mike focuses on parent training as well as executive function help for kids. I believe he also has a summer day camp for teens.

Hello,

We were directed to PerformCare in NJ when my son had issues in school. If you live in NJ, it is a state-funded service. They send someone to your house for an interview, and they then provided three months of in-home counseling and an evaluation for diagnosis. They also are able to supply information on other things you might need to explore.
