Many clients are wondering whether they have ADHD, and many therapists are using screeners to explore that possibility. But ADHD-like symptoms can also show up with trauma, anxiety, depression, OCD, chronic stress, and other concerns.
This workshop helps therapists have more informed, ethical, and clinically careful conversations about suspected ADHD before referring for formal testing. Participants will learn what questions to ask, what screeners can and cannot tell us, why childhood history matters, and how to avoid prematurely confirming a diagnosis based on symptoms alone.
