ADHD manifests itself primarily through a lack of self-control. Self-control requires long-term advance planning, orientation towards more far-reaching goals, thinking through the consequences of actions and checking impulses for action. In order to achieve this, the brain must be able to fall back on functioning circuits and neuronal connections.  And this is where neurofeedback comes into play. The ability to pursue a long-term goal with patience and consistency requires relaxed concentration and focus. This is present at a neuronal activity frequency of approx. 9-13 Hz, the so-called alpha frequency. People with ADHD have too few neurons that operate at this frequency, but they have significantly more neuronal circuits in the very high stress frequencies of over 15 Hz, the so-called beta frequencies. With the help of neurofeedback, the alpha neurons can be trained and the beta neurons reduced to a more productive level.

Simply book a neurofeedback appointment in our online calendar if you feel you are suffering from the above symptoms. If you are not quite sure, you can also take a short test in the form of a questionnaire below, or book a psychotherapeutic appointment to clarify the diagnosis.

• Lack of concentration
• low stamina for tasks
• quick distractibility
• careless mistakes
• overlooking important details
• Starting a lot, but not finishing it
• Rash decisions
• Careless implementation of ideas
• Not being able to wait and see
• Impulsiveness, e.g. bursting into other people's conversations inappropriately
• Inner restlessness
• Feeling of tension and being driven
• constantly being "on guard"

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in adults is characterized by numerous behavioural difficulties. In comparison to ADHD in children, motor restlessness takes a back seat and inattention becomes more prominent.  There is a constant feeling of falling short of one's own potential because the inner restlessness and impatience leads to negative behavior, which is counterproductive at work and in private. Relatives, colleagues and bosses experience people with ADHD as unreliable, self-willed and not very resilient. Addiction issues can also be a factor. In around 40-60% of children, ADHD continues into adulthood.

There are many different ways to diagnose ADHD:

We work with the KATE test diagnosis as one of several recognized test diagnosis manuals to find out whether the suspicion of ADHD is confirmed. If this test diagnosis reveals ADHD, we can also carry out a neurodiagnostic EEG measurement. 

However, we do NOT make a clinical diagnosis, which would be necessary for drug treatment.

The current guidelines stipulate the following measures for the diagnosis of attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder:

• Interview about current life situation
• Examination of whether the criteria for ADHD are currently present using the KATE test diagnostic manual.
• Identification of possible comorbid disorders (e.g. depression, anxiety disorders, addiction).
• A psychological test consisting of a multidimensional intelligence test or a special attention test and a performance test. (These extensive tests are carried out in special facilities. We do not currently offer these comprehensive tests)
• Clinics recommend an interview with an important person of trust (we do not offer this either).

The KATE diagnostic test that we carry out is a valid, common diagnostic tool that gives you a sufficiently good diagnosis to better assess yourself and your own behavior. However, this test alone is not sufficient to obtain medication. For this you need a further consultation with a psychiatrist.

The test takes about 45 minutes. We will then evaluate the results, which will be sent to you by email. This will contain information about the specification and some interesting differentiations, such as beispielsweise, ob die ADHS auf der mentalen, oder exekutiven Ebene vorliegt.

We do NOT offer ADHD diagnostics for children. Instead, we use neurofeedback as an extremely effective and successful training tool.
