Question
Are EEG -QEEGS effective in diagnosis of adhd?  Thanx  

Answer
Hi Liz,

I am sorry.  I am only an expert in personality traits that easily explain symptoms of ADD and ADDHD.  There are personality traits that make it difficult to listen, get distracted easily, have difficulty in solving simple problems, learn better while the body is in motion, etc.  I also teach how these traits are gifts that give a person talent in particular occupations.  There are no bad traits as such but some traits make it easier for a person to concentrate and sit down and learn for periods of time and for others it simply is not natural for them to do so.

I do not know what EEG or QEEGS are.  If you have any questions concerning behavior I could help you.

Good luck.  Feel free to respond with more questions.

Expertise

Behavior and learning challenges are usually caused by personality traits such as Restlessness, High Physical, Low Concentration, Wide Tolerance (spaciness), Force (anger), Aggressive, plus others. I can help in either area.

Experience

25 years experience working with families, teaching them how to work with traits so they work for you, rather than against you. As mother of seven grown children and grandmother of 19, I have seen first hand the beauty of recognizing talents and potential in a child who is difficult to raise. I could not have raised my last daughter, who had a very strong personality, without this knowledge. Besides working with families, I have worked with individuals and businesses. The challenges are always the same--learning how to work with your own traits, plus learning how to handle trait differences between yourselves and others.
