ADD/ ADHD Coaches?

I was wondering about ADD/ ADHD Coaches? What is involved with this normally and is this commonly paid for by health insurance?

add/adhd coaches

You can be your child's coach. The latest research regarding the cause and treatment of ADHD from Harvard and other top medical institutions has shown that ADHD is a thinking problem and NOT a behavior problem. That is the reason behavior modification has always been disappointing in the treatment of ADHD. The part of the brain that is responsible for attention, emotional regulation, decision making is lagging in development; it is physically a little bit smaller than average. With targeted brain stimualation through mental and physical exercises, that part of the brain can grow and "catch up." The good news is that the ADHD brain is healthy, the child often has above average IQ. This new approach empowers the parents to take charge and help their child every single day by introducing thinking exercises into every day interactions, implementing aerobic exercises, mental "games" that improve memory, planning and many other activities in this multi-disciplinary approach. There is no doubt this strategy will replace the older methods of medication and behavior modification. For more information, go to: www.tocureadhd.com or read the book "Brain Exercises to Cure ADHD." You will see some results from the beginning; you will see dramatic results in 3-6 months.
