Abstract:	Presenting an evidence-based treatment approach developed over 10 years of therapeutic work with adults with ADHD, this book is highly practical and accessible. It describes effective cognitive-behavioral strategies for helping clients improve key time-management, organizational, and planning abilities that are typically impaired in ADHD. Each of the 12 group sessions--which can also be adapted for individual therapy--is reviewed in step-by-step detail. Handy features include quick-reference Leader Notes for therapists, engaging in-session exercises, and reproducible take-home notes and homework assignments. The book also provides essential guidance for conducting clinical evaluations and overcoming treatment roadblocks.
