About the Course

While many often think of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) to mainly impact children and adolescents, millions of adults are impacted by ADHD in adulthood. Living with ADHD can have adverse outcomes in many domains, such as employment, family life, and other relationships. This disorder is commonly associated with co-occurring conditions. This training will provide a framework to understand the complexities and multi-faceted nature of ADHD in adults, while providing practical and evidence-based strategies to support adult clients with ADHD and their loved ones.

This course is based on the recorded webinar, ADHD in Adulthood: Supporting Adults With ADHD and Their Loved Ones created by Christina Marsack-Topolewski, Ph.D., LMSW in 2024.
