ADHD Medication Rules: Affiliate Details

by Dr Charles Parker on July 9, 2010 · 7 comments

Tired of Watching The ADHD Medication Mess Escalate?

Start With Rules

This note will be short and sweet – it’s about an opportunity to actually work together to change the current muddle, the morass so present in ADHD treatment strategies. Let’s review the game Rules.

We both know many are seriously frustrated -
Just take a look at the hundreds [now nearly 2000] of comments here and elsewhere that highlight the challenges with dialing in ADHD medications for effective treatment. No, I am not asserting it’s all a mess – many do well and have no problems – but it is quite true that the challenges out there are not rare, but rather commonplace, – way too commonplace.

Rules Speaks Directly To Those Specific Issues in Detail

Holistic Reviews At CorePsych

by Dr Charles Parker on January 24, 2010 · 5 comments

Airport Long-Distance Rail Station

Consult Without Travel

Virtual Consult – Heads Up on Two Items
1. Conference Starts Tomorrow Jan 26!
Do consider attending the Holistic Health Virtual Conference, - I look forward to presenting there on Wednesday Jan 27.  I will be very active with feedback at the forum there, and have an excellent slide presentation for you to follow during the program.

We really must stop automatically treating superficial labels in psych, and need to get down to treating real people with evidenced based objectives. Hope you can make it, just hit the Holistic link on the side bar here, – and remember it’s virtual and recorded, you don’t have to be there real time!

2. We Can Talk Privately-
You’re here because you have listened to my podcasts, watched my YouTube videos, read my comprehensive perspective from hundreds of pages of posts and references – so do feel free to set up a time to review your personal matters by phone.

I have been answering a ton of questions on the comments of several posts here at CorePsych Blog [this one with >140 comments], and realize many of the readers here need more time, and more information regarding meds and the issues with meds – and just don’t have someone local to help resolve those next steps. Psych complexity is workable – if it is addressed comprehensively.

If you’re regularly unhappy with you or your child’s progress, have been walking in the darkness for years, and are just plain old frustrated with current inadequate intervention strategies – such as:

- ADHD meds just not working the way they should
- Chronic psych problems that are not resolving
- Refractory, ‘untreatable’ depression
- Unexplained moods and anxiety that won’t quit with multiple complex issues
- Addiction recovery with cravings that sit on your shoulder
- Brain injury interventions – more than just anti-epileptics
- Mixed Medical and Psych challenges, including more extensive testing
- SPECT Brain Imaging Cookie Cutter Results my personal review [or second opinion] – including neurotransmitter specifics

I can then give you targeted feedback if we can connect with your more specific history, laboratory testing, & med trials – and my comprehensive questionnaires that will save us time on the consult.

Phone Consults Are Often Helpful
Helping you decide what-to-do-next, seeking further evidence, is completely reasonable with a phone consult. Millions get on the phone everyday for specific input with medical and psych challenges. I won’t be writing for any medications unless you come to Va Beach, but I can discuss your next investigations. It’s easy, and often just a few visits can add significant, even more useful information.

What I Do
I can order helpful testing, some of which you can do in your own home, often covered by insurance. I can follow your progress with facts. The benefits are simple: more complete questions, more answers, and a concerted effort to give you information you can use with your own trusted medical team there at home. Frequently recommendations include specific neurotransmitter precursors.  We have seen many reduce their medications with these precise interventions, and have treated many without psych meds at all. I do interpret SPECT imaging, reports are customized, comprehensive, about 15-20 pages, and never cookie cutter.

If You Wish To Chat: How
If you are interested in an initial meeting, please drop an email to Caitlin, the CorePsych Administrator.

Thanks, I look forward to our next conversations – and see you at Holistic!
