Purpose of the Study: This research aimed to ascertain school psychologists' thoughts on the efficacy of behavioral treatment for kids with ADHD. Methodology: This research used a qualitative method. Semi-structured interviews with chosen school psychologists were performed using a standard qualitative research approach. A purposive selection strategy was used to select a sample of fifteen school psychologists from Lahore for this Study. An interview guide comprised of 10 open-ended questions was designed based on the topics found in the literature research. Principal Findings: The majority of participants believed in the efficacy of counseling via behavior therapy for kids with ADHD, particularly in terms of screening, diagnosis, and intervention techniques. Additionally, they thought that without this, parents would be unable to modify the child's behavior. Additionally, they felt that using various treatments might minimize the child's hyperactivity and foster socializing and intellectual and social abilities. Applications of this Study: This research advises that school psychologists conduct seminars to raise knowledge about ADHD counseling efficacy. School psychologists must be employed in public and private special schools to collaborate with all stakeholders to guarantee adequate assistance for children with ADHD. Novelty/Originality of this study: This is the first Study examining the school psychologists' thoughts on the efficacy of behavioral treatment for kids with ADHD in developing economies like Pakistan for the first time
