Understanding ADHD

What Is Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)?

Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by an ongoing pattern of inattention, impulsivity, and/or hyperactivity that interferes with functioning or development. While it is normal to have occasional lapses in focus or bursts of energy, individuals with ADHD experience these symptoms more frequently, intensely, and persistently, often causing significant disruptions in their daily lives.

Types of ADHD

ADHD is categorized into three presentations, depending on the specific symptoms experienced:

  • Predominantly Inattentive Presentation: Difficulty focusing, following through on tasks, and organizing activities.
  • Predominantly Hyperactive-Impulsive Presentation: Trouble staying seated, excessive movement or talking, and impulsive decision-making.
  • Combined Presentation: Features significant symptoms of both inattention and hyperactivity-impulsivity.

Benefits of Treatment with Wellness Hills

Treatment Options for ADHD in New Jersey

Treatment at Wellness Hills Mental Health Center combines medical expertise, therapeutic support, and adaptable levels of care to meet the unique needs of each client. Whether you’re dealing with mild symptoms or more complex, co-occurring conditions, our team is here to provide the care you need, tailored to your life and schedule.

Inpatient Treatment

Our inpatient treatment program is ideal for individuals who need round-the-clock support in a structured and safe environment. For those whose ADHD symptoms are preventing them from functioning in their daily lives—or when ADHD is paired with conditions like anxiety, depression, or substance use disorders, this intensive option provides stabilization and a strong foundation for ongoing recovery.

If you require structured treatment during the day but can return home or to a supportive living arrangement in the evenings, our Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) may be a good fit. This level of care enables individuals to develop strategies for managing ADHD while continuing to participate in life outside the center. PHP provides a blend of therapy, skill-building groups, and support tailored to ADHD symptoms.

For those balancing ADHD treatment with responsibilities like school, work, or family, our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) offers a flexible yet supportive level of care. IOP attendees participate in therapy several days a week, focusing on understanding their ADHD patterns, building time management and organizational strategies, and addressing any emotional struggles tied to living with ADHD.

For individuals with less severe ADHD symptoms, or those transitioning out of PHP or IOP programs, outpatient therapy offers consistent support in managing ADHD. In outpatient care, clients meet once or twice weekly with a licensed therapist who can help refine coping strategies and navigate life’s challenges with ADHD.

Medication is often an effective tool in managing ADHD, and at Wellness Hills, we offer comprehensive psychiatric services to support this aspect of care:

  • Stimulants: Commonly prescribed ADHD medications like Adderall or Ritalin can help improve focus and reduce impulsivity.
  • Non-Stimulants: Medications like Strattera may be used for individuals who benefit from a stimulant-free option.
  • Monitoring and Adjustments: Our psychiatrists work closely with clients to assess the effectiveness of their prescriptions and make adjustments as needed for optimal results.
  • Mood Stabilizers: Lithium or anticonvulsants to balance mood shifts.
  • Antipsychotics: To address manic episodes or psychotic symptoms.
  • Antidepressants: May be prescribed cautiously for depressive episodes.

Our psychiatric team provides ongoing monitoring to ensure that medications remain safe and effective throughout the treatment process.

Therapy is one of the most effective methods for understanding and managing ADHD. At Wellness Hills Mental Health, we offer a range of therapeutic approaches uniquely suited for ADHD treatment:

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): A powerful evidence-based method for identifying and altering negative thought patterns and improving time management.
  • Executive Function Coaching: Teaches organizational, planning, and prioritization skills tailored to each client’s needs.
  • Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT): Helps clients develop emotional regulation and impulse control skills.
  • Group Therapy: Offers individuals with ADHD the opportunity to share their experiences with others, gain insight, and receive support in a safe and collaborative environment.

Preparing to Enter Treatment

What to Expect from ADHD Treatment in NJ

Starting treatment for ADHD at Wellness Hills Recovery Center means entering a supportive environment specifically designed to help you succeed. Here’s what you can expect on your journey toward managing your ADHD:

Comprehensive Assessment

Treatment begins with a detailed evaluation conducted by our clinical team. This step allows us to:

  • Understand the scope and severity of ADHD symptoms.
  • Identify additional challenges, such as anxiety, depression, or learning disabilities.
  • Gather information to develop a personalized care plan suited to your needs and goals.

Many individuals we treat begin noticing functional improvements in focus, emotional regulation, and daily organization within the first 6–10 weeks of consistent ADHD treatment and medication management when clinically appropriate.

Every individual’s experience with ADHD is unique, which is why we believe in tailoring care to the person, not the diagnosis. Your treatment plan may include a mix of therapy, medication management, and skills training programs, all designed to establish long-term self-management strategies.

One key focus of our ADHD treatment program is practical skill-building. During treatment, you’ll work on:

  • Strategies for time management and organization.
  • Tools for improving focus and completing tasks.
  • Techniques to regulate emotions and manage impulses.

ADHD is not a one-size-fits-all condition, and our team of therapists, psychiatrists, and clinicians is experienced in adapting care based on the unique challenges you face. You’ll receive support in a judgment-free setting where your strengths are celebrated and your concerns are heard.

For children, teens, or adults who benefit from family involvement, our team includes loved ones in the treatment process. Family education programs can strengthen understanding and support systems for those managing ADHD.

Recovery and management don’t end when treatment does. As you progress through the program, we’ll work with you to develop an individualized aftercare plan tailored to your specific needs, which may include ongoing outpatient therapy, support groups, and targeted skill-building resources.
