Hello All.Thanks so much to everyone who came out on one of the coldest nights in memory to help me and my compatriots celebrate the publication of my book and the commencement of our group therapy program. The music was undeniably terrific from all three bands, the food was excellent, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. Thanks to Rose Live for a great job, to all the musicians, and to all of you who worked so hard to put on this event.

Please stay tuned to The Attention Doctor for future programs and events. My current fantasy involves the same bands, August, sunshine McCarren Park maybe. I mean, if we can fill the house in the depth of frigid winter... well you get the idea.

Meanwhile, we have begun our first “Adult ADD Meditation and Self Hypnosis Group.” It's now in its third week. The next group begins on Thursday, February 19th in Greenpoint.This group will meet from 7pm-9pm for ten consecutive weeks. If you are interested in any way, please contact Ms. Kristin Romano at Kristinromano@yahoo.com. You can also phone our main office 718.383.3493, ext #1(just leave your name and number and let us know that you are interested in the group).

To all of you who live in northwest Brooklyn, in Greenpoint, in Williamsburg, in Bushwick, and in Bed-Stuy, let me ask you in the most personal way I can to talk to your friends about us. Ask them to sign up on our mailing list. When was the last time you could sign up for a mailing list that might actually be helpful to you and be truly helpful to people that live all around you as well? Pretty win-win for 2009, eh?  

Everyone knows it’s smart to work your dreams. In my dreams, this community comes together and allows me to organize it in pursuit of high quality innovative psychiatric care. I know that we can create a network of communication about our services and programs that will allow me to bring skilled and talented mental health professionals into our nifty little corner of the universe.      

For now, look forward to three unique Meditation/Hypnosis groups beginning in March: Artists with ADD, Musicians with ADD, and Writers with ADD. Contact us now and please stay in touch.
