Description
Recommending couples therapy for ADHD is easy—but turning it into real, lasting change is the hard part. It demands expert techniques tailored to the complex, often turbulent dynamics that ADHD brings to relationships.
Join Ari Tuckman, PsyD, ADHD couple's therapy expert for a roleplay of a fictional therapy session, demonstrating real-life scenarios, therapist interventions, and the couple’s internal thoughts and emotions.
Ari will share effective key strategies, promote active learning and demonstrate how to adapt your approach:
- Foster Balance and Connection: Ensure you engage with both partners equally to maintain harmony and understanding in therapy.
- Balance Agency and Empathy: Skillfully navigate between empowering each partner to take charge of their own growth and showing deep empathy for their individual experiences.
- Assess Medication Efficacy: If a client has reservations about medication, critically evaluate whether the current no-medication approach is truly effective or if adjustments are needed
- Assertive Leadership: Maintain strong leadership without being overwhelmed by the couple's dynamics, ensuring that your guidance remains clear and authoritative
- Discussion on key takeaways and alternative therapies
This presentation will be educational, relatable, funny, and poignant—just like a good relationship!
