Success with ADHD Skills Class

Origin
Many adults are learning for the first time that they have ADHD.  They often live a life of confusion, feeling overwhelmed, and struggle to complete the simplest tasks each day with little or no  satisfaction."Success with ADHD" is based on a program called Bridge to Success developed by Joyce Kubik. This program prompted a research study, "Efficacy of ADHD Coaching for Adults with ADHD," that was published in the Journal of Attention Deficits with notable results that indicated ADHD coaching significantly impacts all dimensions studied, particularly cognition and behavior. The study can be viewed at: Sage Journals.
