~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dear Colleagues,
I am excited to let you know about a comprehensive course on adult ADHD
that is going live again this fall! “What is Adult ADHD, Anyways?”
<https://edu.springadv.com/courses/what-is-adult-adhd>is a 6-credit CE
course delivered over two days, offering a deep dive into the diagnosis
and treatment of adults living with ADHD.
In this course, the presenter will explore many of the challenges adults
with ADHD face and share real-life examples of coping strategies for
this often painful condition. This hybrid course was previously taught
in the Spring of 2024, so videos from that session are already
available. We’re offering live presentations again this fall to give
those who enjoy live interaction another opportunity to engage in this
rich learning experience.
Your registration provides access to both the live events and the
recorded videos for immediate viewing. Please see the details below for
more information, and feel free to reply to this email
(ad...@springadv.com) if you have any questions.
Yours,

*Program content description: *
Chances are, you have encountered someone with adult ADHD (attention
deficit hyperactivity disorder) in your practice. Research shows that
adult ADHD is likely underdiagnosed and/or misdiagnosed and that these
folx do not have the support that they need to navigate the unique
challenges that come with adult ADHD (Chung et al., 2019).
Additionally, many adults have also developed compensatory strategies
that end up masking their challenges (Canela et al., 2017), which means
that we, as counselors, have an ethical responsibility to better
understand the complexities and nuances of adult ADHD. It is critical to
understand (not just on paper, but in practice) how the diagnostic
criteria for adult ADHD translate into the therapy room when you are
sitting with someone who is struggling. Adult ADHD goes beyond the
symptoms described in the DSM, and in fact, research suggests that
additional challenges, such as frequent emotional dysregulation, should
be considered when assessing and diagnosing adult ADHD (Soler-Gutiérrez
et al., 2023).
This presentation will explore how to “translate” the diagnostic
criteria for adult ADHD into the real world, assessment tools for adult
ADHD, unique challenges associated with adult ADHD that are often missed
in the diagnostic criteria, factors that influence underdiagnosis and
misdiagnosis, neurodivergent-affirming interventions to support
individuals with adult ADHD, and how intersectionality impacts
individuals with adult ADHD.
