🏆 Case Rounding: Focus on Attention with Dr. Joseph Donaher

🔤 Description

I frequently get questions from clinicians. They say, "What do I do with this kid with ADHD?!”
In this masterclass, we will walk through clinical decision-making regarding attention. We will collect your real-life cases (before), so this masterclass can be extremely practical, with case-based discussion.

đź’Ş Attendee Take-Aways

  • Consider the impact attention has in your cases

  • Explore strategies to help you do better therapy.

  • Common ways these characteristics impact the effectiveness of therapy, and what we can do about it.

  • “Clinical rounds” to discuss ways to lessen the impact of attention/focus concerns.
