This unique 14-week program offers support to both ADHD children and their parents. Dr. Frawley will meet with parents and children on alternate weeks. In this way, parents can learn strategies that will help them to better serve as their child’s ADHD Coach - supporting them academically, emotionally and medically. The purpose of this program is to teach children and parents how they can succeed with ADHD.

The Succeeding With ADHD program is limited to 6 families. Each participant will receive Dr. John Taylor’s book: The Survival Guide for Kids with ADD or ADHD.

ADHD will be explained in terms that children can understand and accept. Treatment options, medications and their possible side-effects will be discussed as appropriate. Children will be introduced to strategies/tools to help them learn time-management, memory, organization & study skills. Home-based challenges will be identified along with ideas for overcoming them.

Parents will be introduced to the various challenges facing their ADHD child as well as themselves. Discussions will include the etiology, diagnosis and various treatment options available as related to ADHD. Helpful tips on behavior management along with strategies to overcome the "Homework Wars" will be offered.

Follow-up Coaching sessions with Dr. Frawley will be available to parents and/or their ADHD child in order to address more individual or specific challenges not addressed during the group therapy program.
