Show Notes
Most parents are told that ADHD treatment begins and ends with medication, which can be helpful for some kids. But there’s so much more to the story. (Grab a spot in the free Executive Functioning Week for parents below).
In this episode we talk about four powerful — and often overlooked — ways to improve ADHD symptoms in kids.
You’ll learn why ADHD is actually more than just poor attention, so much so that "ADHD" isn't really the best name for this diagnosis, how sensory needs and hyperactivity are closely connected, ADHD super-powers, and 4 ways we can support kids with ADHD so they can regulate, focus, and thrive.
If you’re parenting a child with ADHD (or suspect your child may have it), this episode is for you!
