Evidence-Based Therapy for ADHD-challenged Couples

Adult ADHD-Focused Couple Therapy  TM.  Why create a special model for Adult ADHD-challenged couples?   Why not just use standard couple therapy? Great questions. I’ll answer them, at least in part, in this podcast.  ·     I first explained in 2008 why standard couple therapy is typically unhelpful in my book, Is It You, Me, or Adult ADHD, including a chapter called “Why the Wrong Therapy is Worse Than No Therapy.”    This book is as relevant today as it was then.·     My second book  is Adult ADHD-Focused Couple Therapy: Clinical Interventions, published in 2016.  ·     It is the first and only clinical guide presenting a couple-therapy model based on the evidence—that is, a careful and flexible merging of what works for Adult ADHD and what works for couple therapy.About my co-author: Arthur L. Robin, PhD, has long helped individuals and couples affected by ADHD. His strategies are battle-tested. In his primary occupation, from which he is now retired, he trained psychologists working at a children’s hospital. Both his ADHD expertise and skill as an educator shine through our model’s interventions..·      To be notified of new posts, subscribe: ADHD Roller Coaster·      Read the original blog post of this podcast here:  Q&A with the Experts: Adult ADHD-Focused Couple Therapy - TMSupport the showI love helping readers, listeners, and students understand the complexity of ADHD.Solving Your Adult ADHD Puzzle — online training for Adults with ADHD and loved ones, with the option of joining regular Zoom Q&A meetings with your peers.
