After evaluating all the pros and cons, we are decided to go with medication & CBT for our 7 yr old son, who got diagnosed with ADHD recently.. But we also realized that we should do enough home work in finding the best psychiatrist who can prescribe right medication with right dosage which plays a vital role in overcome the condition..So would be really helpful if any one can suggest a good psychiatrist in bay area,CA..

We are in Marin County. Our 10 year old son sees a Behavioral and Developmental Pediatrician. She doesn’t do CBT but she does prescribe & manage his medication. We’ve had a great experience the 3 years we’ve been seeing her. Here’s her info:

Thank you so much. I will keep it as an option because my place is a little far.

I do not have personal experience with this group. But they got great reviews. They even have a teen dungeons and dragons club for teens.

Good luck!

It is a very hard time for everyone, so it may take a while to get into.
