💛 October is ADHD Awareness Month!

ADHD is one of the most common neurodevelopmental conditions, but it’s often missed in girls and women because their symptoms may be less visible. Many girls internalize their struggles, appearing quiet, anxious, or “daydreamy” instead of hyperactive.

Awareness matters. Early recognition and support can make all the difference. Let’s break the stigma and celebrate the strengths, creativity, and resilience of those with ADHD. 🌟

Ascent Therapy Ozark is now offering Child-Parent Psychotherapy (CPP)—a trauma-informed, evidence-based model designed for children ages 0 to 5 and their caregivers.

What is CPP?
CPP focuses on strengthening the relationship between a young child and their caregiver following trauma, separation, or major life stress. Sessions involve both the child and caregiver, fostering emotional connection, healing, and healthy development.

How CPP Helps:

Supports reunification with biological parents

Strengthens trust and attachment in foster and kinship care

Enhances emotional responsiveness and parenting skills

Reduces emotional and behavioral challenges in children

We are committed to accessible care:
✅ Accepting Medicaid
✅ Sliding scale options available
✅ Pro bono services offered when needed
