from Tell Me Your Story · host Richard Dugan

Solving the ADHD Riddle: The Real Cause and Lasting Solutions to Your Child’s Struggle to Learn By Connie McReynolds, Ph. D. Dr. Connie McReynolds Unveils That What’s Holding Your Child Back is The Brain’s Failure to Properly Process Auditory or Visual Information –And How to Easily and Measurably Improve Brain Function to Higher and Often Normal Levels! Doctors, psychologists, administrators, teachers and parents are treating symptoms, but not solving the problem! #1 Amazon bestselling book in eight categories So your child has been on Ritalin or one of the other ADHD drugs -- and you’re thinking perhaps even possibly for life. Or maybe your youngster has been diagnosed, but no amount of school behavioral therapy or special education is easing your child’s struggle. Or …and for many this is the case…your child is simply acting out, doesn’t seem to pay attention or follow though with what you ask them to do, and just can’t seem to keep up schoolwork. And you are at your wits end! Until now, the interventions that have been proposed for children who are diagnosed with some aspect of ADHD, or that have been used to improve a child’s behavior or learning skills when they exhibit similar challenges have failed to get to the root cause of ADHD. In other words, doctors, psychologists, administrators, teachers and parents are treating symptoms, but not the cause—so the problems persist even if there is some improvement. And for many kids, they simply continue to fall behind and struggle. But now, there is a known cause and a solution! Connie McReynolds, Ph.D., one of the foremost researchers and experts in her field, illuminates why your child is suffering in her new book -- Solving The ADHD Riddle: The Real Cause and Lasting Solutions to Your Child’s Struggle to Learn. According to Dr. McReynolds, the real cause of ADHD is that a child’s brain has auditory and visual processing shortcomings. That’s not a hearing or seeing issue—it’s that the brain cannot fully hold or interpret the information coming in…thus, the child cannot pay attention or retain information enough to actually learn. And while often punished for willfully failing to focus, follow instructions or remember lessons, the youngster is actually incapable. But through years of clinical research, Dr. McReynolds discovered this key and her clinics have been providing a breakthrough solution that is consistently measurable and repeatable using Neurofeedback. By using 30-minute sessions of a specially-developed video game, new neural pathways are built and strengthened, improving the specific areas of auditory or visual processing that have shown to be an issue in an initial intake assessment. She shows that how identifying a child’s specific challenges and developing a brain training intervention to address those changes has allowed children to strengthen their processing abilities and transform their lives. The results are astonishing! In her book, Dr. McReynolds cites case studies of children who were failing school and ultimately named to the honor-roll; youngsters whose families had lost all hope, see their children thriving without drugs or other treatments; kids who were angry, acting out and failing to socialize, become engaged, happy and functional with teachers, students, and family members. Notes Dr. McReynolds: “Regardless of gender, all children who struggle in school due to auditory and visual process problems are at risk of a negative path that includes a decreased likelihood of completing high school, a higher incidence of involvement with the criminal justice system, and diminished employment outcomes.”
