How CBT & ADHD Coaching Help Adults Manage Their ADHD Symptoms (w/ Russ Ramsay, Ph.D., David Giwerc)

You guys really need to chop these down into TLDR shorts and time stamp various sections in video descriptions. I just can’t sit thru all these 😢

As a therapist it is really interesting to hear about the coaching side with a therapist present.

Awesome

ADHD coaching is a minefield atm, with a lot of people jumping on the bandwagon. Whilst good ADHD coaching absolutely has its place, it’s helpful to, as they try to, understand & compare the different trainings, so here’s my summary from a UK perspective; ICF ADHD coach training (the most extensive coach training I’m aware of). This is what the coach said: 20 days of training part time 500 hours practice (= about 2.5 months of working as a full time coach) Vs: Clinical psychology: 3-4 year psychology degree Plus about 3 years working in healthcare after your degree Doctoral courses over three years: About 200 plus DAYS of lectures, plus 3,800 hours in supervised practice as a trainee Plus numerous case reports Plus doctoral level research thesis & viva You can then be registered with the HCPC as a clinical psychologist Then you go on to specialise, often doing MSc in a therapeutic domain after your doctorate. If you can find a clinical psychologist specialising in ADHD, that’s a lot more training for your money :-0

just a correction, psychotherapy is a licensed profession and has been for a very long time. In the US and Canada (CA more recently). around 35:00 he said it wasnt licensed, thats not true. It is a recognized healthcare profession. I will be one when I finish my masters degree and take the Licensing exam :)

CBT..AND adhd coaching..that'd be a miracle.... BUT no help to get it!!!😟 Would be a miracle ..in this state of oregon 🙄

Only if you can afford 200-400 extra a month for coaching because no insurance covers it.

I find the title card to be a very insensitive and even outright offensive use of the word "Naturally". I wont be watching this one because I don't trust people who use the word "naturally" to imply that there is something better about not being on medication when its literally the only treatment found to be highly effective for most people.

Seems like it's a big fat joke 😕
