ADHD in Isolation Lorna Redford

Ana is fascinating. Listen to her story and thoughts on ADHD in our latest episode of ADHD in Isolation!

Dr Colm Lonergan and Chris Bagley convene to discuss ADHD from their perspectives as Educational Psychlogists working in different areas of the education system in England. 

Listen to Arwen take us into her world as a young female with ADHD. Arwen is the youngest guest on our show so far!

Clare approached the group after facing years of uncertainty with her son. 

She was soon linked up with a group mentor (who is also a parent of a child with ADHD), Nikki, who helped her build understanding, patience and strategies to improve her relationship with her son.

What is ADHD like as a young female? Zara, another young person from the youth group, has always been more inattentive than hyperactive. She talks Calum through the challenges she faces, how she copes, and what she wants to do in the future.

The guest of today's episode has extensive and fascinating experience in the research, assessment and support of those with ADHD.
