    Strategies Manual for Educators

    This manual is easy to read with numerous brief topics related to AD/HD specifically from an educator’s perspective. Topics are covered in one to two pages so that a teacher may copy handouts for parents of their students. Numerous easy hands-on strategies are included that can be applied to all students.

    Strategies for Parents

    This easy-to-read manual has numerous topics regarding ADHD written in one to two page sections. The manual emphasizes the strengths of those who are ADHD and offers many easy-to-use strategies. It contains a good basic foundation to help parents understand the ADHD child and provides insight on how to handle various problems.

    Take-Home Testing Manual

    This manual can be useful to both professionals, individuals, and families who are concerned with the possibility of ADD/ADHD in a child or adult.

    Professionals can use the manual’s materials to evaluate the suspected ADHD (both ADD and ADHD) client. There is a screening checklist for ADHD that is based on the DSM-IV and helps evaluate both the type of ADHD and its severity. Other questionnaires and checklists help the professional evaluate all the problems that could look like ADHD or are occurring in conjunction with ADHD. After an extensive interview with the client, the professional can summarize the results in a letter to the client’s psychiatrist or pediatrician who works with ADHD, along with a copy of the collected data to get a quick confirmation of the suspected diagnosis.

    Families that do not have access to a psychologist who specializes in testing for ADHD or families with limited financial resources can complete all the forms in the manual and take the completed manual to a psychiatrist for immediate diagnosis and development of a treatment plan.


    DVDs

    Due to the requests of many people who have attended her workshops and asked for a means of taking the workshop home with them, Susan has produced a video series of actual workshop sessions.

    We are pleased to currently offer DVDs of five of some of her most popular workshops. These are videos of actual workshops, filmed during the presentations and then professionally edited. So, if you want to review a workshop you’ve attended with a neighbor or a teacher or you can't attend a workshop in person, we offer these DVDs as the next-best thing to being there.

    Each DVD sells for $30 including tax, shipping and handling where applicable.
