Description
Some of the most powerful ways of working with neurodiverse clients are unfortunately the most overlooked. For ADHD therapy to be effective, therapists must look beyond simple skills training or behavioral changes on the part of the client. Identifying meaningful environmental changes in relationships, the workplace, and the classroom provide critical keys to successful outcomes. When applied, they can truly help people struggling with ADHD flourish, affirming the many gifts that often come with neurodiversity. In this session, you’ll discover:
- Advanced approaches to support clients with ADHD that go beyond simple behavioral changes
- How to know which environmental, workplace, and classroom accommodations will result in success and well-being for clients
- How to reduce shame and enhance self-worth with ADHD clients from a place of full appreciation and affirmation of their unique skills and abilities
