Are you ready to live fully and engage in fulfilling relationships?

In this guided support group, Dr. Sharon Saline will help ground you in some of the practices introduced in part one, foster meaningful connections, reduce anxiety, decrease perfectionism and address rejection sensitivity. Each session will have a short teaching, followed by a discussion of how a challenge manifests in your life and how to cope with it.

This is a special opportunity to have semi-private consultations with Dr. Sharon and learn from other adults with ADHD, too. There will be optional homework, recommended readings and access to a private, ongoing discussion group as well. You will learn practical and mindful strategies for feeling calmer and more confident!

Group Format:

After an initial short check-in and moment of mindfulness, there will be a brief 10 min teaching on the topic, followed by a discussion that includes individual consultations.  There will be optional homework and recommended readings as well.

Topics to be covered include:

  1. Understanding ADHD, procrastination, time blindness and prioritizing
  2. Identifying challenges related to anxiety
  3. Strategies for self-regulation and perfectionism
  4. Shifting self-criticism, blame, shame, inadequacy and RSD
  5. Managing and regulating the intensity of ADHD + anxiety
