SUMMARY:ADHD & Symptom Tests ON-DEMAND WEBINARS  Live Webinar on December 14: Optimizing Executive Functions in Children and Adults with ADHD
DESCRIPTION:To succeed in school\, at work\, and in life itself\, your executive functions need to be sharp and working well. What are ‘executive functions\,’ exactly? The abilities to reason and creatively problem-solve\, to exercise self-control and resist temptations\, to think before you speak or act\, to stay focused and concentrate\, and to exercise the flexibility to see things from different perspectives and adapt to change. The good news is that executive functions can be improved at any age. \nStress (even mild stress) seriously impairs executive functions. Mindfulness practices that involve movement (such as t’ai chi or taekwondo) have been especially successful in improving executive functions. School programs such as Tools of the Mind\, MindUP\, Montessori\, and PATHs also help to optimize executive functions. Like mindful movement practices\, they train and challenge diverse executive function skills and reduce stress in many ways. \nAlmost any activity improves executive functions if it challenges you\, and you enjoy the activity enough to keep working at it and pushing yourself. The most successful programs involve more instructor-trainee interaction than offered by most computerized training.  Having a supportive mentor who firmly believes in you and the efficacy of the program\, and who genuinely cares about you\, is critical to the success of any program in improving executive functions. \nRecommendations for children or adults with ADHD who want to optimize or improve their executive functions include: \n\nCommit to doing an activity you really love that requires\, trains\, and challenges executive functions – it could be a practicing traditional martial art\, performing with a band\, or pursuing photography\, dance\, orienteering\, gardening\, etc. – try to push yourself outside your comfort zone.\nTake steps to reduce stress in your life – for example\, try to avoid stressful situations or defuse them\, try to maintain a regular routine and put things in the same place so you can find them\, follow a mindfulness or yoga practice\, spend more time out in nature or with a pet\, and remember that no one is perfect\, so don’t be so hard on yourself.\nMeet the Expert Speaker:\nA leader in two fields\, psychology and neuroscience\, Adele Diamond\, Ph.D.\, FRSC\, helped pioneer a now flourishing interdisciplinary field called “developmental cognitive neuroscience.” As the Canada Research Chair Tier 1 Professor of Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience at the University of British Columbia\, Dr. Diamond studies how executive functions can be modified by the environment\, modulated by genetics and neurochemistry\, derailed in disorders\, and improved by effective programs and interventions. Her work has helped change medical practice for the treatment of PKU (phenylketonuria) and for the inattentive type of ADHD\, and it has impacted early education worldwide. \nHave a question for our expert? There will be an opportunity to post questions for the presenter during the live webinar.\n\nClick here to Register \nNot available December 14? Don’t worry. Register now and we’ll send you the replay link to watch at your convenience.

SUMMARY:The Center for Autism and Related Disabilities (CARD Albany) Live Stream Seminars
DESCRIPTION:The Center for Autism and Related Disabilities (CARD Albany) is offering three live stream seminars that are directed towards school professionals\, community professionals\, and parents\, who live or work with individuals on the autism spectrum. These sessions will not be recorded. These seminars AT NO COST to participants living in New York State through a grant from the New York State Education Department. Registration is required to attend. Choose the sessions you would like to attend when you fill out your registration entry. \nSeminar One – 9:00am-10:15am \nHidden in Plain Sight:  Unmasking Anxiety in ASD\nAlthough anxiety is not considered a core feature of ASD\, approximately 40% of young people with ASD have clinically elevated levels of anxiety.  It is particularly important to recognize and treat anxiety in ASD since it has a great impact on the course and the core aspects of the disorder\, exacerbating social withdrawal as well as repetitive behaviors (Hollander\, 2018).  This training will look at how anxiety can manifest in individuals with ASD and how to treat these symptoms through a cognitive behavioral approach. \nSeminar Two – 11:00am-12:15pm\nReturning to the Classroom: Implementing Structure to Support Students with ASD\nAs many schools make plans to shift from distance learning to in-person instruction\, families\, students and educators face an adjustment period. That’s especially true for students with autism spectrum disorder\, because transitions can be particularly stressful and challenging for them.  Establishing a new school routine is also really important. Setting a schedule and daily expectations is key to helping kids feel safe and secure at school. Students must be comfortable in order to re-engage and connect\, and that will enable them to be ready to learn (Schetter\, 2021). This training will examine ways in which teachers and other school personnel can establish structure within the classroom and throughout the day to support students with ASD as they return to in-person learning. \nSeminar Three – 1:00pm-2:15pm\nUnderstanding and Reducing Challenging Behaviors through Functional Communication Training\nParticipants will be introduced to ways in which they can better understand challenging behaviors and effective strategies to teach more appropriate skills. They will be guided through an evidence-based procedure called Functional Communication Training (FCT) that has been used successfully to reduce challenging behavior in individuals with autism spectrum disorder. \nThe live stream seminars (three seminars per date) are available on the following dates:\nWednesday\, December 15\, 2021 \nContinuing Education Credits\nCARD Albany is an approved provider for the following continuing education credits:\nSchool Psychologists (NASP)\nSocial Workers (LMSW & LCSW)\nContinuing Teacher and Leader Education (CTLE)\nLicensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) \nGeneral certificates of attendance will be provided for all participants. \nEach session is eligible for 1.25 contact hours. There is a $5.00 processing fee per session for each CEU selected. Please visit our website for more information about CEU offerings. CEUs can be selected during registration and payment can be submitted online with a credit card. \nRegister:  https://www.albany.edu/autism/training-and-learning/training-opportunities/professional-development-and-parent-seminar

SUMMARY:Live Webinar on January 10: Focus on Inattentive ADHD: The Under-Diagnosed and Under-Treated Subtype
DESCRIPTION:ADHD’s three distinct subtypes were first recognized in the 1994 update to the DSM (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual)\, however confusion over the subtypes’ differences persists even today. This appears particularly true of the “Predominantly Inattentive” (PI) subtype\, which is characterized by symptoms of distractibility\, failure to complete work\, forgetfulness\, and disorganization. People with the predominantly inattentive ADHD — many of them women diagnosed later in life — experience the same problems paying attention that are typical of ADHD\, but they face fewer of the difficulties related to impulse control seen in the Combined subtype. \nBecause inattentive children exhibit fewer behavior-management problems\, PI is not always recognized and diagnosed in childhood\, and this under-recognition can persist into adulthood. This is particularly true for girls with ADHD\, who are more likely than boys to have the PI subtype. Research and clinical experience show clearly\, however\, that difficulties with attention — even when not accompanied by impulsivity or hyperactivity — can lead to significant functional impairment and distress in higher education\, the workplace\, and in social \ninteractions. When PI is diagnosed and treated early\, individuals can work to manage symptoms and take better control of the condition. \nIn this webinar\, you will learn about: \nThe prevalence of predominantly inattentive ADHD in children and adults\nThe most common symptoms and distinctive features of inattentive ADHD\nHow predominantly inattentive ADHD is recognized and diagnosed\nThe daily-life difficulties of people with PI\nEffective treatments for predominantly inattentive ADHD \nNot available January 10? Don’t worry. Register now and we’ll send you the replay link to watch at your convenience. \nHave a question for our expert? There will be an opportunity to post questions for the presenter during the live webinar. \nMeet the Expert Speaker:\nDr. Mary Solanto is professor of pediatrics and psychiatry at the Hofstra/Northwell School of Medicine (Long Island\, N.Y.). Prior to joining Hofstra\, she was Director of the ADHD Center at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine and Associate Professor of Psychiatry at NYU. In 2017-2018\, Dr. Solanto was a Fulbright U.S. Scholar in the Netherlands\, where she conducted research on treatment of ADHD in college students. Dr. Solanto’s research on the cognitive and behavioral functioning of children and adults with ADHD\, the effects of psychostimulants\, and the characteristics of subtypes of ADHD has been supported by grants from NIMH\, NICHD\, and NINDS. She developed a novel cognitive-behavioral intervention for adults with ADHD\, which was the focus of an NIMH-sponsored efficacy study (American Journal of Psychiatry\, 2010). The manual for therapists\, Cognitive-Behavioral Treatment of Adult ADHD: Targeting Executive Dysfunction was published by Guilford Press (2011). The program was recognized as the Innovative Program of the Year by CHADD (2011). Dr. Solanto has served on study section/grant review panels for NIMH. Currently\, she is a member of the editorial boards of the Journal of Attention Disorders\, and the ADHD Report (Guilford Press)\, and serves on the professional advisory boards of CHADD and APSARD. \nClick here to register.

SUMMARY:Live Webinar on January 19: Perfectionism and ADHD: Making ‘Good Enough’ Work for You
DESCRIPTION:Do you set unrealistic goals and worry about disappointing others? Are your personal expectations based on “shoulds” instead of your known strengths and interests? Does this result in shame and low self-esteem? \nThese behaviors point to a cycle of perfectionism\, an unhealthy insistence on personal flawlessness that increases anxiety and holds you back from the natural process of learning that’s part of daily living. Perfectionism is common among teens and adults with ADHD who struggle with wanting something to be right so much that it becomes difficult to start (and complete) tasks\, assignments\, and projects. Though perfectionism can be motivating\, it can also keep you overfocused on the end result and not the process of getting there. \nIn this webinar\, Dr. Sharon Saline will explain how to stop setting unreasonable standards\, engaging in negative comparisons to others\, and criticizing yourself for living with ADHD. You will learn how to understand and manage the root causes of perfectionism\, examine the role of imposter syndrome\, decrease negative self-talk\, and increase your capacity for personal compassion. You will understand how to improve executive functioning skills related to procrastination and productivity\, stop reflexive shame\, and create techniques for managing stress. With these resources\, you’ll begin to nurture the essential resilience of a growth mindset and accept yourself as you truly are — perfectly imperfect. \nIn this free\, hour-long webinar you will learn how to: \n\nUnderstand the relationship between anxiety\, perfectionism\, and ADHD\nImprove executive functioning skills related to procrastination and productivity\nSet realistic expectations based on previous successful experiences\nDevelop techniques for addressing imposter syndrome\, fear of failure\, and shame\nIncrease the capacity for mindful self-compassion and self-acceptance\n\nHave a question for our expert? There will be an opportunity to post questions for the presenter during the live webinar. \nNot available January 19? Don’t worry. Register now and we’ll send you the replay link to watch at your convenience. \nClick here to register. \nMeet the Expert Speaker: \nSharon Saline\, Psy.D.\, is a licensed clinical psychologist in private practice working primarily with children\, adolescents and families for the diagnosis\, treatment\, and intervention of ADHD\, learning disabilities\, and mental health issues. She is the author of What Your ADHD Child Wishes You Knew: Working Together to Empower Kids for Success in School and Life. Dr. Saline has extensive experience consulting with schools throughout Western Massachusetts on mental health issues in the classroom\, interpreting psychological evaluations and improving teacher/parent communication.
