This week’s guest is Cindy Goldrich. This is a good one, guys. It’s for everyone, but especially for parents! Cindy is a mental health counselor who works nationally with parents, teachers, and counselors, and has written the book “* Keys for Parenting Children with ADHD.”
Her basic premise here is that pills don’t teach skills, and medication, while not bad, isn’t for everyone, and certainly shouldn’t be a first line of defense. Take a listen. I’m thrilled with this interview.
In this episode, Peter and Cindy discuss:
- Is ADHD a weakness (02:01)
- Cindy’s story (02:56)
- Types of clients (03:31)
- Teachers, schools and medication (05:45)
- Working with teachers (08:59)
- Food and physical activity (10:41)
- Tips for diagnosed (12:08)
- The transitional process (13:41)
- Unknown facts about ADHD (14:13)
- Not being heard (16:12)
