( HS Kelley 096749 2026) Women-Centered ADHD Specialist Certificate Training A 2-Day Intensive in the Neurodiversity-Affirmin

Course overview

Women and girls with ADHD are frequently underdiagnosed and misdiagnosed, often presenting with anxiety, burnout, perfectionism, or relational distress rather than classic ADHD symptoms. Strengths such as creativity and sensitivity can mask underlying attentional and regulatory challenges, leading to years of invalidation and ineffective care. This certificate training introduces the W CAT Model Women-Centered ADHD Treatment a neurodiversity-affirming clinical framework and treatment model that guides assessment, planning, and intervention across the lifespan. W CAT provides a structured yet flexible roadmap that addresses the developmental, hormonal, neurobiological, and psychosocial realities of ADHD in women. Rather than teaching a single modality, W CAT shows clinicians how and when to integrate evidence-based approaches including CBT ADHD, ACT, IFS and compassion-informed work, DBT-informed skills, somatic, expressive, and group-based interventions across its core pillars. Participants leave with practical assessment language, regulation and executive function tools, and strategies they can immediately apply in clinical practice.
