Family Therapy for ADHD
Treating Children, Adolescents, and Adults
Craig A. Everett and Sandra Volgy Everett
This book presents an innovative approach to assessing and
treating ADHD in the family context. Readers learn strategies for diagnosing the disorder
and evaluating its impact not only on affected young persons but also on their parents and
siblings. Also addressed are the neurobiological underpinnings of ADHD, and clinical
issues that arise when a parent also shows signs of the disorder. From expert family
therapists, the volume outlines how professionals can help families mobilize their
resources to manage ADHD symptoms; enhance parent child and marital relationships; improve
functioning in school and work settings; and develop more effective coping strategies.
Session-by-session intervention plans for clients at different developmental stages are
accompanied by a wealth of illustrative case material.
