About the Program
Hosted by psychologist, Dr. Lenore Melmeyer. Join this supportive parent group to learn how ADHD can affect a child’s executive functioning skills, including attention, organization, planning, emotional regulation, and task completion. Participants will explore the important role parents play in strengthening these skills and leave with practical, everyday strategies to help their children build confidence, independence, and success at home, at school, and beyond.
This parent group is designed for families raising children and teens with ADHD. ADHD is more than inattention, low motivation, or impulsivity—it reflects challenges in the development of executive functioning skills. This session helps parents better understand these challenges and provides practical tools to support their child’s growth.
Each session includes a 60-minute presentation (with some video content), followed by a guided Q&A discussion tailored to the needs of participating families. The goal is to create both an informative and supportive environment for parents navigating similar experiences.
Topics Covered
- The nature of ADHD: underlying deficits and developmental expectations
- Executive functioning skills and how they are impacted
- The critical role of parent mindset in supporting development
- Practical strategies to help children build executive functioning skills
