ADHD Strategies: Family Training and Involvement

Description: Many clinicians work with the Autism population. Oftentimes, we find that the person we work with has a dual diagnosis of ADHD.  Providing a comprehensive approach to clients with ADHD including behavioral therapy and psychopharmacology in conjunction with a solid foundation in collaboration across the disciplines is key to client success. The next layer to successful independence for the individuals we serve is expanding the collaboration beyond professionals and incorporating families (and stakeholders) into the therapeutic process.  One such way is through education and training.

Presenters: Dr. Ronald T. Brown; Dr.  Debbie Coehlo, C-PNP, PMHS, CFLE; Dr. Mike Marroquin, BCBA-D
