CHILD ADD/ADHD Program in Mooresville, NC | New Mentality

Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) & Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) Program

The New Mentality ADD/ADHD Program treats and improve the lives of children that have been diagnosed or have symptoms of ADD or ADHD, without the use of medication. We proudly serve Mooresville, the Lake Norman area including Cornelius, Davidson, Huntersville, and surrounding areas.

Developed to improve children focus and attention on daily tasks while school, home, or wherever they need to focus and pay attention.

“Addressing ADHD before middle school reduces the risk of academic failure, low self‑esteem, accidents, and later anxiety or depression. With the right supports, children can transform their boundless energy and curiosity into lifelong strengths.”

Our innovative technology allows treatment without medication. First, our neurotherapist performs a brain assessment. Combining this data with other clinical assessments, the New Mentality team designs a personalized treatment program to improve attention, focus, processing speed, and overall performance.

A person with ADHD has differences in brain development and brain activity that affect attention, impulse control and the ability to sit still.  

ADHD can also cause anger outbursts, difficulty completing tasks, restlessness and the inability to socially engage or connect.

DID YOU KNOW?

What is ADHD (children)

Also known as attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder is one of the most common mental disorders affecting  affecting children.

In childhood, ADHD is usually recognized through academic or behavioral red flags: constant motion, blurting out answers, daydreaming, incomplete homework, or emotional outbursts. Boys are still diagnosed more often than girls, largely because hyperactivity is easier to spot than quiet inattention.

“Early treatment matters: unmanaged childhood ADHD raises the risk of academic failure, accidents, and later mood disorders.”

Beyond managing symptoms, it’s crucial to help children recognize and channel the upside of ADHD creativity, curiosity, and high energy while building daily habits that protect their well‑being. Encourage short but consistent movement breaks (jumping jacks, wall pushes) to reset focus, prioritize 9–11 hours of sleep to calm impulsivity, and offer nutrient‑dense snacks (fruit, yogurt, nuts) that stabilize mood between meals.

What causes ADHD?

Researchers at the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), National Institutes of Health (NIH), and across the country are studying the causes of ADHD. Current research suggests ADHD may be caused by interactions between genes and environmental or non-genetic factors. Like many other illnesses, a number of factors may contribute to ADHD such as:

  • Genes
  • Cigarette smoking, alcohol use, or drug use during pregnancy
  • Exposure to environmental toxins, such as high levels of lead, at a young age
  • Low birth weight
  • Brain injuries

Key signs to watch for

  • Inattention: careless mistakes, losing school supplies, difficulty following multi‑step instructions, easily distracted by sights or sounds.

  • Hyperactivity‑impulsivity: fidgeting, leaving seat, running/climbing at inappropriate times, talking excessively, interrupting others.

Children require six or more symptoms in either domain, present in two or more settings (home + school), and clearly impairing daily life.

New Mentality develops personalized treatment plans to improve attention, focus, processing speed, and overall performance.
