Dr. Lewis explains and makes sense of the latest science concerning ADHD and the conditions that tend to cluster around the diagnosis; he also shares the wisdom he s earned through decades of treating patients and supporting parents. Dr. Lewis encourages and provides information for parents to take control of coordinating the many professionals who work with their child, so that child and family have a team on their side: Parents - Doctors - Teachers - Counselors - Coaches (in complex cases, more than one specialist might be involved). Drawing on his vast experience, Dr. Lewis shares the steps required to set a person on the path to the success, relationships, and optimism that they feared would always elude them. He shares his understanding that it takes a team and that only a parent can bring a professional team together whose collective expertise allows their child to flourish. He s watched it happen. He s coached those parents. He s supported and cheered those children as they grew into thriving adults. ADHD is often accompanied by other conditions that need to be identified and treated.Dr. Lewis explains how to work with the unique challenges of coexisting conditions if (and when) they occur.
