Program Description:
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a complex disorder with a wide spectrum of presentations that interferes with an individual’s daily functioning and development. It is one of the most common neurodevelopmental disorders of childhood, but ADHD can indeed go undiagnosed until adulthood, especially when the symptoms are less disruptive or when coping mechanisms have been developed over time.
In this beginner level interactive webinar, psychiatrist Daniel Pine and psychologist Ryan Landoll discuss the diagnosis and treatment of Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in children and adults.. The presentation opens with a discussion about the data involved in making a diagnosis of ADHD. This is followed by a discussion of long-term outcome and comorbidity – including conditions that frequently accompany ADHD such as learning disabilities, depression, or anxiety.
Next, the presentation reviews established treatments options, including psychiatric medications and therapeutic interventions. Finally, the presentation discusses new treatments on the horizon, including risks and benefits. Participants come away with knowledge on how to diagnose ADHD and effective options for treatment across the lifespan.
