ABOUT US
Welcome to DrEwingOnline.com and Aubrey K. Ewing, Ph.D. & Associates, P.A. We are a multidisciplinary group of mental health practitioners located in Boynton Beach, Florida. We have been in practice in Palm Beach County for more than twenty years, offering mental health, counseling, biofeedback, and psychological services for all ages.
ADHD OR JUST NORMAL KID BEHAVIOR?
We hear a lot about attention and hyperactivity problems in children these days. Sometimes this behavior is normal and age appropriate. But as many as one in four children may have a real, physiological condition referred to as Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). This condition has nothing to do with intelligence; many very bright kids have difficulty focusing and controlling their impulses due to this very specific brain difference.
Difficulty following multi-step instructions, remembering daily routines, paying attention when a task is boring or difficult, avoidance of homework and forgetting to turn it in, as well as excessive physical activity and impulsive behavior may be signs of ADHD...but not always.
It's not enough that someone you trust thinks your child may have ADHD. Standardized, scientifically based testing methods are necessary to make a definitive diagnosis. For more more information about our Focused ADHD Screening, visit the AD/HD Diagnosis and Treatment section of our website or give us a call or email. We will be happy to explain our process and answer your questions.
IS MY CHILD GIFTED?
If your child is quite expressive, unusually curious, has an advanced vocabulary, is particularly good with mathematical concepts, asks thought provoking questions, has a wide range of interests, and seems to understand advanced concepts, she/he may be considered "gifted". Teachers and other school faculty may recognize exceptional traits in your child and recommend they be considered for a gifted curriculum. A Gifted Education Program is one that challenges qualified students through innovative teaching methods and enriched content.
