How to Help Clients with ADHD (& Others) Improve Productivity

One of the biggest complaints from (and about) adults with ADHD is their struggles with productivity. This has significant repercussions in academic, professional, personal, and interpersonal functioning. Better tools and systems, like online calendars with reminders, can be helpful, but these clients often struggle to use them consistently, frustrating themselves, their family, and their therapist. What gets in the way between the intention and the action?

Dr. Tuckman returns to share a strategy-loaded presentation to help clients with ADHD address the various mental barriers to productivity, such as perfectionism, deadline stress, overwhelm, ambiguity, fake productivity, and rationalization. He will also discuss how to help clients decide how productive they really need to be and how to handle other people’s expectations and disappointments. While focused on working with clients with ADHD, much of this will be beneficial with other clients in your caseload.
