Parenting an ADHD brain can be deeply frustrating–you know they have the potential, but why won’t they just do the thing you’re asking them?! ADHD brains work in unique ways–I will explain what is going on in easily understandable terms and how you, the people who are with them so much of the time, can help them not just manage their ADHD but thrive.
This session will be densely packed with evidence-based actionable content based on years of working with parents of kids who have ADHD or other related behaviors. It is appropriate for parents with kids from tot to teen and everything in between!
