ADHD Treatment

 When ADHD symptoms interfere with work, school, relationships, or daily life, finding the proper help matters. In Houston, TX, LifewoRx provides compassionate, expert psychiatric services for ADHD, combining thorough evaluations, evidence-based therapy, and careful ADHD medication management to support both children and adults.

A psychiatrist for ADHD is a medical doctor who specializes in diagnosing and treating ADHD as well as co-existing mental health conditions. They can evaluate your symptoms, rule out other possible causes, prescribe the proper medications, monitor your response, and adjust treatments over time. Unlike some providers who offer only therapy or coaching, psychiatrists bring medical, psychological, and lifestyle perspectives into one comprehensive plan.

At LifewoRx, we provide a full spectrum of mental health services tailored for ADHD — meaning we address more than just attention or hyperactivity. Our services include:

• Comprehensive ADHD Evaluation: We begin with a detailed assessment that includes a comprehensive medical history, symptom questionnaires, interviews, input from family/school/work, as well as other psychological tools or rating scales.

• Diagnosis & Differential Assessment: We ensure accurate diagnosis, considering whether symptoms better fit another condition (e.g., anxiety, depression, learning differences) or if ADHD co-exists with them.

• Therapy for ADHD: Evidence-based therapies (such as cognitive behavioral therapy, psychoeducation, skills training, executive functioning coaching) to help manage impulsivity, distractibility, time management, organization, emotional regulation, self-esteem, and social relationships.

• Medication Management: For many patients, appropriate medications (stimulant and non-stimulant options) are a key component of treatment. Our psychiatrists monitor effectiveness, side effects, and make adjustments as needed.

• Personalized Treatment Plans: We believe no two people are the same. Your treatment plan will reflect your background, age, lifestyle, preferences, and any cultural or individual factors that matter to you.

• Ongoing Monitoring & Support: ADHD is often a lifelong condition. We offer regular follow-ups to monitor progress, adjust treatment, and provide support with coping strategies and lifestyle modifications (sleep hygiene, diet, exercise, stress management).

• Telepsychiatry & Flexible Care: For patients in Houston and Texas, we offer remote sessions so you can access care even if travel or scheduling is difficult.

Houston is a large and diverse metropolitan area where many residents face high stress, traffic, and fast-paced schedules. These factors can exacerbate ADHD symptoms such as impulsivity, distractibility, or trouble staying organized. At the same time, access to mental health services in Texas can be uneven. By combining in-person and telepsychiatry offerings, LifewoRx aims to make ADHD treatment in Texas more accessible.

We understand cultural stigma in Houston’s many communities — among Hispanic, African American, Asian, and other populations — and how that can discourage people from seeking help. Our staff is sensitive to these aspects, offering inclusive and culturally competent care so everyone feels seen, respected, and supported.

We treat both children and adolescents as well as adults with ADHD. Whether:

• Your child is having trouble with grades, socializing, or following instructions in school.
• You’re an adult noticing issues with focus, forgetfulness, disorganization, feeling overwhelmed, or emotional reactivity.
• You’ve tried therapy or coaching and feel you need more specialized psychiatric support.
• You need guidance on ADHD medication management.

We tailor our services to your age, developmental stage, and life stage.

• Initial Evaluation Appointment

You’ll meet with one of our ADHD experts, a psychiatrist, who will gather detailed history, symptom profile, and prior treatments (if any). We may use rating scales or questionnaires.

• Diagnosis & Discussion

Based on the evaluation, we discuss whether ADHD is present, its type (inattentive, hyperactive-impulsive, or combined), and any co-occurring conditions (like anxiety, depression, or learning difficulties)

• Treatment Planning

This includes discussing therapy options, whether medication is appropriate, lifestyle supports, and setting goals together.

• Ongoing Monitoring & Therapy

Follow-ups to check progress, adjust treatment, reinforce skills—with therapy & coaching support to build organization, focus, and emotional control.

Medication for ADHD is not “one-size-fits-all.” We consider:

• Your age, medical history, and co-existing conditions
• Stimulant vs non-stimulant medications
• Possible side effects, timing of doses, and adjustments
• Whether medication is needed, short-term or long-term
• Regular follow-up to track effectiveness.

Medication is only part of the treatment. It works best when integrated with therapy, skill training, and support.
