Overview:
ADHD, impacting approximately 10% of the global population, is a prevalent mental disorder with far-reaching consequences. Untreated ADHD can reduce life expectancy by 12-20 years, marking it as one of the most serious mental health challenges. Despite being extensively researched, a notable knowledge gap exists in the medical and mental health provider communities, hindering effective treatment and contributing to substantial societal costs.
This webinar bridges this knowledge gap by integrating advances in molecular genetics, neurochemistry, and neuroimaging techniques. Gain a deeper understanding of how trauma influences neurological development and autonomic nervous system functioning, both with and without ADHD. Unveil the often-overlooked aspect of emotional (nervous system) dysregulation in ADHD, particularly its connection to rejection sensitivity.
What will you learn? Holistic ADHD Management: Acquire insights into a comprehensive ADHD management plan that considers rejection sensitivity and emotional dysregulation, leading to improved outcomes across educational, occupational, financial, legal, and social realms.
Trauma-Informed Care: Explore trauma-informed care strategies, aligning your practice with the latest research and paving the way for more effective interventions. Latest Research and Applications: Stay at the forefront of ADHD research, closing the gap between knowledge and application. Leverage cutting-edge science to enhance your approach to ADHD diagnosis and treatment.
