About the Center

Specialization in A.D.D. began 40 years ago when Dr. Bettie Sarchet started consulting with other professionals to learn more about the symptoms and to develop techniques for treating them.  At that time the symptoms of A.D.D. were a mystery without a name.  Over the years the disorder has had several names.
