Overview:
This workshop focuses on co-occurring behavior disorders that frequently accompany a diagnosis of ADHD. While other co-morbid conditions also are common with this disorder (e.g., anxiety, depression, various addictive behaviors, learning disorders), this workshop will only concern itself with the Disruptive, Impulse-Control, and Conduct Disorders under DSM-5 that is seen with ADHD. Professionals who work with teens and/or their families are especially encouraged to attend, as early intervention with this population is key to keeping the brain from further dysfunctional miswiring.
Objectives:
- Spot the diagnostic criteria for ADHD under DSM-5.
- Identify the common co-occurring Disruptive, Impulse-Control, and Conduct Disorders under DSM-5, as well as their diagnostic criteria.
- Describe some common treatment options with this population.
- Recognize when and how to include significant others in the treatment protocol to
- maximize efficacy.
- Explain when other professionals might need to be brought into the picture as part of a treatment team.
Course materials are only available to enrolled students.
