New Frontier in ADHD Treatment with Dr. Scott Kollins
Manage episode 377861977 series 2554122
Hey team,
This week, we’re diving into the innovative world of digital therapeutics with Dr. Scott Kollins, exploring the potential of a unique game-based treatment for ADHD.
Dr. Kollins works for a company called Akili that has been developing a video game that is designed to help treat the symptoms of ADHD. The game EndevorOTC was only available for iOS, but they also just recently launched an Android version.
In our conversation today, we discuss the challenges, successes, and future of this pioneering approach to managing ADHD.

This Episode's Top Tips
- We should consider EndevorOTC as a supplement rather than a replacement for traditional treatments. While the research does show it’s benefits, we often want to approach our ADHD treatment from multiple angles.
- As with anything we do for our ADHD, consistency is key. Just like exercise or going to the gym, the game's benefits come with regular and consistent use.
- Although designed as a game, this treatment should be approached with the understanding that it's a medical product aiming to assist and that sometimes it’s going to be hard.
