Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is one of the most commonly diagnosed neurodevelopmental disorders in children—and increasingly recognized in adults. It affects not just attention and focus but emotional regulation, executive function, and overall quality of life. At Alleviant Integrated Mental Health, we approach ADHD differently—through a brain-first model that seeks to uncover the root causes rather than simply managing symptoms.

This blog explores ADHD’s underlying mechanisms, the impact of lifestyle and environment, common treatments, and how Objective Psychiatry (including spectral EEG or sEEG) offers a revolutionary path forward.

If you or someone you love is struggling with depression or OCD — and medication hasn’t worked — you may feel like you’re running out of options. 

You’re not. 

There’s a non-invasive, FDA-cleared treatment that’s helping thousands of people experience lasting relief — without medication side effects. 

It’s called TMS — Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation — and at Alleviant, we take it one step further with our personalized version called NeuroSync™.

Let’s break down how it works — and why it may be the right next step for you. 

Depression is often misunderstood. 

It’s not just sadness. It’s not just “feeling down.” And it’s definitely not something you can snap out of with a positive attitude or a weekend getaway. 

For many people, depression feels like a fog that never lifts — or a weight that makes everything harder than it should be. It’s waking up tired, feeling disconnected from yourself and others, and wondering if things will ever change. 

If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone — and you don’t have to stay stuck. 

If your child (or you) are struggling with focus, impulsivity, irritability, or poor emotional regulation — ADHD may be the first thing that comes to mind. But in today’s world, these symptoms are just as likely to be the result of an overstimulated brain.

Imagine if your brain had a control panel — one that allowed us to see how it’s really performing, where it’s out of sync, and what it needs to function at its best.  That’s what spectral EEG (sEEG) provides — a non-invasive, 4-minute brain scan that shows us your brain’s electrical activity across all regions.
