(HS McCloskey 048145 2019) Improve Executive Functions: Evidence-Based Strategies to Change Behavior

Course overview

Executive Function (EF) skills form the foundation of success for people of all ages. But individuals with ADHD, Autism, OCD and other conditions have significant EF deficits - failing to thrive at school, work, home and in their most important relationships. Your work with individuals struggling with EF issues is some of your most rewarding -- yet it's often the work that leaves you the most frustrated and exhausted. Forgotten appointments, unfinished homework, distractibility, procrastination and difficulties organizing thoughts present formidable obstacles to making progress in school or therapy. And the strategies that work so well for other conditions seem to fall short when an EF deficit is present.
