ADHD support for Merrimack students and adults
Families from Merrimack's elementary schools, Mastricola Upper Elementary, Merrimack Middle School and Merrimack High School often ask us about attention, homework and accommodations. We also evaluate Merrimack professionals at corporate campuses and along the Route 3 corridor who find that focus and organization are getting harder as responsibilities grow.
Many Merrimack adults are evaluated after years of compensating with long hours and extra effort. A careful evaluation can show whether ADHD, anxiety, sleep or a mix of these is behind the struggle.
ADHD at different ages
In young children ADHD often looks like constant movement and impulsivity. In teens it may show up as missed assignments and conflict at home. In adults it often appears as disorganization, procrastination, restlessness and difficulty keeping up at work. We evaluate all ages from 4 to 65.
Getting to us from Merrimack
From Merrimack, our Salem office is about 35 to 40 minutes away by car. Most Merrimack patients combine one or more in-person visits with telehealth follow-ups from home.
