ADHD: Reviewing the Options and Medications
Join Dr. Young, a highly regarded psychiatrist who works with children, teens, adults, and even professional athletes with ADHD, as he helps cut through the noise. In this session, Dr. Young will share:
•The range of treatment options, from medications to non-medical therapies
•The risks and benefits of different approaches
•How lifestyle changes and executive functioning coaching can support long-term success
Parenting young adults can feel like navigating a tricky “in-between” stage, a time when your child is no longer a dependent child but not yet a fully independent adult. This workshop will explore how to strengthen your connection with your young adult while supporting their growing autonomy and self-sufficiency.
Together, we’ll discuss the key developmental tasks young adults face, the unique challenges and opportunities they’re navigating in 2025, and the essential parenting skills that can make a difference during this stage. Topics will include emotion regulation, psychological flexibility, active listening, and perspective-taking, all designed to help you guide, support, and stay connected as your child steps into adulthood.
This session will explore the latest research every parent should know to help raise boys who grow into strong, healthy contributors to society. Together, we’ll address the unique challenges boys face today, from navigating technology in their developmental years, to forming their identities within a complex social landscape, to building the communication skills essential for thriving relationships. Through insights and hands-on activities, this session will equip and inspire you to lead with purpose, guiding today’s boys to become the men our world needs tomorrow.
