Tracking # 20-1382748
Course overview
Watch Gabor Maté, M.D., and Terry Matlen, MSW, for a transformational workshop that reframes ADHD beyond symptom management. Instead of viewing ADHD as a fixed genetic disorder, this event explores it as a dynamic neurodevelopmental state shaped by brain development, attachment, and environment. Through teaching, conversation, and interactive Q&A, you'll discover how understanding neuroplasticity and relational factors can promote long-term emotional growth - not just short-term behavioral change. Ideal for clinicians, educators, parents, and anyone seeking a deeper, more compassionate perspective on ADHD.
