A 360-Degree Approach to Diagnosis and Treatment

A 360-Degree Approach to Diagnosis and Treatment At The Hallowell Center, we take a comprehensive, 360-degree approach to the diagnosis and treatment of each problem, beginning with a detailed analysis of the symptoms presented. This approach allows us to identify the problem and develop a customized treatment plan for each individual. That treatment plan may include recommendations for lifestyle changes, environmental modifications, stimulant medication or other medication, counseling and coaching, individual or group therapy. In some cases, complementary or alternative therapies, such as the Dore program, may also be suggested.
