Pittsburgh, PA (PRWEB) June 18, 2012

The Being Well Center, http://www.thebeingwellcenter.com, located in Pittsburgh PA and a worldwide leader in ADD/ADHD diagnosis and treatment, is releasing a set of diagnostic screeners that pinpoint potential barriers to success for students entering into or currently struggling in college. Available as a free resource to parents and students, the Confidence@College (C@C) screeners take into account the whole person and are rooted in The Being Well Centers philosophy that independence and success can be achieved in spite of the challenges of ADD/ADHD, temperamental extremes, learning disabilities, language disorders, and mental health problems.

Through its Confidence@College program, The Being Well Center systematically and accurately identifies all contributors to possible college failure and develops individualized success plans. Confidence@College provides ongoing long distance support to struggling college students via a team of doctors, counselors, and educational specialists who utilize innovative technologies to meet with patients throughout the semester.

The Being Well Center has pioneered a treatment program, Confidence@College, tailored to college students who may struggle with new demands for independence, time/task management, social decision making, problem solving, and self-advocacy that college presents. The BWCs college screeners are a key element in the C@C programs initiative to identify and treat at-risk students before they fail or drop out of college. The screeners help parents and students identify the temperamental extremes, skill weaknesses, attentional differences, health challenges, stressors and attitudes that can pose barriers to success at college.

Parents are frustrated that nagging, pleading, and threatening just doesnt work when it comes to success at college. They lack confidence that their kids wills succeed and worry that their huge investment in their childs education will disappear down the drain. The fear and frustration is no less for the student, who may have great intentions but quickly gets behind the 8-ball and then avoids or lies about where things really stand, observes BWC founder and medical director, Dr. Craig B. Liden.
