About this event
Supporting ADHD clients goes beyond just offering strategies—it starts with building a strong foundation for trust, understanding, and growth. In this engaging and practical workshop, we will explore three essential layers of the ADHD Pyramid for working effectively with ADHD clients. This workshop follows up on the book Travel Into the ADHD Mind.
Contracting for Clarity; Success – we’ll explore the foundational layer of working with ADHD clients: contracting. Before discussing strategies and interventions, it’s essential to establish a clear, ethical, and mutually agreed-upon working relationship. Learn how to establish clear, ethical, and goal-driven contracts to set the stage for effective collaboration. Understand how to help clients identify their needs, create SMART goals, and navigate uncertainty.
Psychological; Neurological Observations—Learn to read nonverbal cues, body language, and physiological signals to gain deeper insights into your clients’ emotions, confidence, and stress levels. Interpret behavioural patterns without assumptions and develop a more attuned, responsive approach.
Understanding Core Beliefs: Self, Others; the World – Uncover the deeply ingrained beliefs ADHD clients hold about themselves, others, and life itself. Explore how these beliefs influence their behaviours, relationships, and sense of identity. Learn how to challenge and reframe limiting beliefs using Richard Erskine’s Script System.
Through interactive discussions, real-world case studies, and hands-on exercises, this workshop will give you the tools to enhance client trust, deepen your observational skills, and guide ADHD clients toward transformative self-awareness. Whether you’re a coach, therapist, or educator, you’ll leave with practical strategies to make a lasting impact.
