Treatment Application
Practice limited to children 5 to 22 and their families.
Since my book
presents a new theory of what ADHD is and how to treat it, it is important to
read ADHD: A Path to Success before you fill out this
application. If you have not read my
book, you have no idea what type of treatment you are applying for. Filling
out this application will NOT result in advice about your child. It is only
useful to determine whether your family is appropriate for my treatment
program
To make treatment more convenient, I often work weekends. Here is the agenda for a typical 3 days treatment program
I am usually booked about two months in advance. Since many of my patients come from across the country and around the world, I can make recommendations for accommodations, restaurants, recreational activities in the area, driving directions etc. We will assist you in any way we can to make you visit to Spokane as easy and enjoyable as possible.
Patient Screening
One reason I have a very high success rate is that I only accept families I am very confident I can help. There are some very specific things that help me make that determination. To gather the information needed I have developed an ADHD Treatment Application. After reading my book, filling out this application is the next step in my being able to help you. If you just send me an email describing your situation, I will probably have to ask you to fill out this Treatment Application. This is more work for both of us.
Costs
Since treatment is individualized to the needs of each family, I cannot give you a cost for treatment or tell you whether your child is suitable for treatment until I have a completed Treatment Application. So, please complete this application before your inquire about costs.
*** Smoking ***
Unfortunately, if any family members smoke, treatment is likely to be ineffective. I don't fully understand why smoking predicts such a poor outcome. However, in reviewing patients that have been unsuccessful, almost all of them smoked. And, I do not accept patients for treatment that I am not confident that I can help.
Thus, I do not accept smokers. Smokers should not fill out the treatment application..
I know this may be frustrating to you if you smoke, and I am sorry. However, it would be unethical for me to take your time and money if I had reason to believe that my efforts would not be helpful.
Email spam filters are getting so aggressive recently, because of the greatly increased amount and sophistication of spam, that many of my responses to treatment applications are being filtered out as spam. So, before you fill out my treatment application, go to your spam filter and put my email address, weathers@caer.com , on your "white list." That way your spam filter should not filter my response out. However, I always respond within 2 days, and usually sooner. So, if you do not get a response by then, check your spam filter and contact me by some other means.
P.S. You should only fill out this application if you are considering coming to Spokane for treatment. As much as I would like to, I have no way of helping you without coming to Spokane. There are no other treatment centers in the world that offer CAER treatment.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I call you on the phone and talk to you about my child/self.?
Q: Can I order WebCAER? How does it work?
_______________________
Q: Are the medications that my child is on the right ones. Should I have his medications changed to .....?
A: I am not a physician, thus I am not licensed to give specific medication advice. Medications are not generally used for Aspergers because they generally do not address the types of problems Aspergers patients experience.
However, because of the overlap between ADHD and Aspergers, many children are on the stimulants commonly prescribed for ADHD. All of these medications used for ADHD have severe side effects that you should be aware of before you consider any of them. Check out these websites www.ritalindeath.com, and www.meth-lab.com. Also check my website www.adhdhelp.org. It provides a good review of medications commonly used for ADHD.
Q: Do you have a treatment center in ................ or do you know some one in ............. who uses your treatment methods?
A: Since I invented, built and patented the CAER machine, I am the only one who has one. Thus, if you were interested in CAER treatment, you would have to come to Spokane for treatment.
I am not familiar with treatment resources around the country. Thus, I cannot recommend someone in your area.
Q: Will you explain to me exactly how CAER works?
A: What I do is both theoretically and procedurally too complex to explain in an email. The best explanation is on this website.
Q: Can I call you on the phone and talk to you about my child/self...?
A: I would prefer to answer your initial questions via email since that is much more time efficient. i feel that I am very generous with my time, but to continue this, I must use my time efficiently. And email is much, much more efficient that telephone conversations.
However, I will be glad to speak with you after your initial questions have been answered by email. If I have this background, our conversation can be much more productive.
First Sentence: With terror in my heart, I can still remember sitting in emotional and almost physical pain at Palm Elementary School in Beaumont, California.
