Exploring Trauma, Dysregulation, and Co-Occurring Neurodivergence

The ADHD Revolution Starts Here!

We're entering a bold new era—where ADHD is no longer pathologized by deficits or delays…

…but recognized as a fast-moving, emotionally intelligent, dynamic brain that thrives with the right support.

At the 2025 ADHD Conference, we're replacing deficit-based models with a bold, neuro-affirming framework grounded in the latest neuroscience, trauma research, and clinical innovation.

We're kicking off with a clinical breakthrough: Dr. Marcy Caldwell's brand-new ADHD Identity Development Model—a revolutionary framework that reveals why clients reject tools that “should” work, pinpoints where they are in the identity process, and gives you next steps to help them reclaim their narrative and build lives that finally fit their brains.

From there, top experts including Ari Tuckman, Sharon Saline, Mark Bertin, Tasha Oswald, Varleisha Lyons, and more will build upon this identity-first approach with powerful tools to support executive function, regulation, motivation, resilience, and growth.

In just 2 days, you'll walk away with a groundbreaking clinical framework, six high-impact on-demand training sessions, and tools to help your clients flourish.

Plus: You'll earn your ADHD-CCSP Certification—on us. We're covering the full cost—a 299.99 USD value, included with your registration.

A breakthrough model. World-class faculty. Life-changing tools.
