Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) affects how children and adolescents regulate attention, impulses, activity level, and emotions. Young people with ADHD often work extremely hard but still struggle with focus, follow-through, frustration, and confidence — especially in academic and structured settings.
Kiwi Recovery provides structured, evidence-based ADHD treatment for children and adolescents across Massachusetts. Our approach supports attention, emotional regulation, executive functioning, and daily routines while helping families better understand and support their child's needs.
ADHD is a neurodevelopmental condition that impacts attention, impulse control, emotional regulation, and executive functioning skills such as planning, organization, and task initiation. ADHD presents differently across individuals and developmental stages and is not a reflection of intelligence, effort, or motivation.
Without appropriate support, ADHD symptoms can affect school performance, peer relationships, family dynamics, and self-esteem. With the right structure and skill-building, children and adolescents with ADHD can thrive.
Kiwi Recovery offers a supportive, predictable environment designed for children and adolescents with ADHD. Our team uses brochure-confirmed, evidence-based modalities — Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, grounding practices, creative expression, movement-based therapy, family work, and psychiatric care — to help young people build practical skills while reducing overwhelm.
Our approach utilizes UCLA PEERS, an evidence-based social skills program that teaches youth with ADHD concrete, step-by-step skills for making and keeping friends through modeling, role-play, rehearsal, and real-world practice. The curriculum targets common ADHD-related challenges such as impulsivity, difficulty reading social cues, conversational turn-taking, handling teasing, and entering and exiting peer groups appropriately. This is incorporated within our programs.
Children and adolescents participate in structured programming designed to support attention, emotional regulation, and daily functioning.
