Comprehensive Assessment and Treatment of ADHD: A Carlat Webinar with Dr Josh Feder

https://www.thecarlatreport.com/blogs/3-carlat-psychiatry-webinars/post/4895-comprehensive-assessment-and-treatment-of-adhd

Hi, I'm Josh Feder, and welcome to another Carlat webinar. Today, it's another webinar from the Child and Adolescent Psychiatry team on the comprehensive assessment and treatment of ADHD, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). I'm the Editor-in-Chief at The Carlat Child Psychiatry Report,

If you've seen people with ADHD, you'll know what I mean. You might have a very active child who is prone to accidents. Then, there are kids who are more inattentive, daydreaming in class, not completing their work, and sometimes becoming depressed because they can't keep up. Teenagers with ADHD may be impulsive in their daily lives. They might drive recklessly, accept dares from friends, or be more inclined to experiment with substances.

In this webinar we will talk about how:

•Diagnosis isn’t always clear: many conditions mimic ADHD

•Clear cases of ADHD usually improve a lot with treatment

Hope it's helpful!
