KEYNOTE ADDRESS: An Outsider’s View of ADHD Coaching: Current Status and Future Directions

J. Russell Ramsay, Ph.D.

The purpose of this presentation is to provide an overview of the ongoing development of ADHD Coaching as an intervention for adults with ADHD.  More specifically, this session will briefly review the evolution of ADHD Coaching, its status in a multimodal treatment plan, emerging outcome studies on its effectiveness for individuals with ADHD, and future directions for coaching interventions, research, and the challenges to be faced as the profession continues to define itself.  Dr. Ramsay, a psychologist specializing in cognitive-behavioral therapy for adult ADHD, will provide his “outsider” observations of ADHD Coaching during his presentation and it is hoped the topic will spark discussion with participants during the session.

Coaching ADHD Plus: Executive Dysfunction, Working Memory, Tourette Syndrome, Obsessive-Compulsives Disorder and other Co-Morbid Disorders

Neuroscience for coaches

Daniel Pruitt

Current research shows that over two thirds of people with ADHD have at least one other co-morbid or associated disorder. To be an effective ADD coach it is necessary to understand the range of possible co-occurring disorders, how to recognize them, how to coach them, and when to refer them to an allied professional. This talk will include a discussion of the common co-morbid disorders that ADD coaches will encounter in their practice.

Coaching the World’s ADHD Brains to Empower Human Global Gains

Neuroscience for coaches

Neuroscience for coaches

Laurie Dupar

Dopamine, synaptic gap, receptors & oh my! Transporters, methylphenidate, amphetamines & oh my! The words, the terms & the expressions from clients when trying to understand their ADHD. Explaining the neurobiology of the brain and the general principles of ADHD medications is a whirlwind of information, but it doesn’t need to be a disaster! Come to this session and let Laurie Dupar, ADHD Coach and Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, teach you a less complicated yet professional way of helping your client better understand their unique brain and the medication concepts used to treat their disorder.

Is it ADD or ASD? How Autism Spectrum Disorder Differs from ADHD in How it Manifests and Implications for Coaching

Neuroscience for coaches

Techno-bling for Coaches: What Works and What Doesn’t

Technology and the on line community

Linda Roggli

Techno-bling. Those high tech gadgets and tools that are supposed to boost your coaching practice, build your email list and create better YouTube videos. But how can you tell which ones are worth your time and money? Ah, you come to this ACO session, that’s how!

A snippet of things you’ll hear about: wireless headsets, mind-mapping software, flip video, webcams, podcasting mikes, ergonomic keyboards, Bluetooth for your cell phone, client management sites, password protection, webinar providers, Skype vs Vonage, online postage, voice recognition software, digital recorders, no-touch cards for clients, online appointments & and a lot more. A lot.

You’ll have my personal recommendations with links, my video about exercising while you coach, some cool songs and a lot of fun. All techno folks welcome: techno-neophytes, techno-phobes and techno-cruisers!

The Science of Similar

Advanced Coaching and Mentoring

Jeff Copper

When you are stuck, what do you pay attention to? Do you pay attention to the obvious solution as if you are the same as everyone else? Or do you pay attention to how you are different? This presentation organizes science into categories, distinguishes each category from the other, and pays attention to the science of coaching, reinforcing how each client was created, naturally resourceful and whole, and how solutions resonate from how individuals are different!

Understanding the ADHD Brain for Successful Weight Management
