This workshop covers the functional challenges of adult ADHD, along with effective therapeutic approaches to them. We review why it is so difficult for adult with ADHD to develop healthy habits, and some ways to address this.
Psychological Assessment of Adult ADHD

Any doctoral level psychologist can learn how to effectively assess Adult ADHD with instruments that are easy to administer, score and interpret. Important instruments for assessment are reviewed, as well as topics to cover in the clinical interview. No training in neuropsychology needed!
