ABOUT THIS COURSE
Under the direction of expert therapist Dr. Dawn Ferrara, start learning the symptoms, effective treatments, and how best to help children with ADHD.
Are you the parent, teacher or carer of a child who:
fidgets a lot?
always loses things?
is constantly on the go?
cannot pay attention?
forgets things constantly? It’s frustrating but it may be a sign a child has ADHD. The important thing is to recognize the signals so you can get help straight away.
After all, you’re not alone. About 11% of children aged 4-17 years (that’s 6.4 million youngsters) have been diagnosed with ADHD in the US.
Our expert, Dr. Dawn Ferrara, has worked with children and adults with ADHD for over 20 years. Her acute understanding of this complex subject allows her to break down the information into an easily understood course.
As doctors better understand ADHD, the rates of diagnosis have increased. It’s important that parents, teachers, and carers also learn about ADHD – and how to handle what can be a difficult diagnosis.
Through our course you will learn what ADHD is and different ways to live with it. Once you recognize why a child behaves in a certain way, you can understand them better and help them thrive.
