ADHD and Disruptive Behavior Disorders

Course overview

This workshop focuses on co-occurring behavior disorders that frequently accompany a diagnosis of ADHD. While there are other co-morbid conditions that also are common with this disorder (e.g., anxiety, depression, various addictive behaviors, learning disorders), this workshop will only concern itself with the Disruptive, Impulse-Control, and Conduct Disorders under DSM-5 that is seen with ADHD. Professionals who work with teens and/or their families are especially encouraged to attend, as early intervention with this population is key to keeping the brain from further dysfunctional miswiring.
