In individuals with ADHD, there appears to be a timing mismatch in certain neural networks responsible for attention, impulse control, and executive functions.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text]<style type=\"text\/css\" >#l_49s7ygjc1appn0jbqyeb{width:300px;}#l_49s7ygjc1appn0jbqyeb.sc_line ,#l_49s7ygjc1appn0jbqyeb .sc_line { height:1px; background: #000000; background: -moz-linear-gradient(90deg, #000000 0%, #1e73be 100%); background: -webkit-gradient(linear, left top, right bottom, color-stop(0%,#000000), color-stop(100%,#1e73be)); background: -webkit-linear-gradient(90deg, #000000 0%,#1e73be 100%); background: -o-linear-gradient(90deg, #000000 0%,#1e73be 100%); background: -ms-linear-gradient(90deg, #000000 0%,#1e73be 100%); background: linear-gradient(90deg, #000000 0%,#1e73be 100%);}#l_49s7ygjc1appn0jbqyeb {margin:0px 0 px 0; padding:0;}<\/style><div class=\"clearfix\"><\/div><div id=\"l_49s7ygjc1appn0jbqyeb\"  class=\"sc_line rd_line_normal\" ><\/div>[vc_empty_space height=&#8221;15px&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1704231384622{padding-top: 25px !important;}&#8221;]<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These networks, crucial for regulating behavior and focus, seem to exhibit irregular patterns of activity and communication. When the brain&#8217;s timing is disrupted, it can lead to difficulties in sustaining attention, impulsivity, and hyperactivity\u2014hallmark symptoms of ADHD. This understanding of ADHD as a neurodevelopmental condition involving timing and synchronization issues provides new insights into potential treatments and interventions, focusing on improving the brain&#8217;s internal clock and enhancing neural pathways&#8217; efficiency. Researchers and clinicians are exploring innovative therapies that target these timing discrepancies, offering promising avenues for more effective ADHD management in the future.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Individuals with ADHD often exhibit difficulties in auditory processing, leading to challenges in filtering out irrelevant sounds and focusing on important auditory cues. This can result in distractibility, impulsivity, and difficulties following verbal instructions, all of which are common symptoms of ADHD. Additionally, deficits in auditory processing can impact a person&#8217;s ability to sustain attention, especially in noisy environments. Addressing these auditory processing challenges through targeted interventions, such as auditory training programs, can significantly improve attention, focus, and overall behavioral symptoms in individuals with ADHD. At TLC, we understand and address these auditory processing issues as we treat ADHD as well as teach comprehensive ADHD management strategies.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By providing TLC therapies which treat the CAUSE of attention\/focus challenges, we see our students succeed in becoming confident and independent learners without the challenges they had previously suffered with.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is widely accepted that as many as 50% of those diagnosed with ADHD actually have auditory processing deficits that are masking as attention\/focus. Therefore it is important to screen for Auditory Processing Disorders before taking medication or beginning therapy.
