In this next level of the ADHD and anxiety management group series, we will delve deeper into key topics related to living and working with worry, social anxiety, procrastination and distractibility. The goal of this group is to help ground you further in practices introduced in previous groups or webinars to reduce patterns of worry, lower daily stress and increase compassionate self-acceptance. We will unpack strategies for improving emotional regulation, increasing productivity and transforming critical self-talk. Topics such as social anxiety, time blindness and rejection sensitivity will also be discussed. 

In addition to interactive, honest and often moving group discussions, each group member will have the opportunity for their own spotlight session for personalized attention from Dr. Sharon. This masterclass is a special opportunity to have semi-private consultations with Dr. Sharon and learn from other adults with ADHD and anxiety.

This level two group is appropriate for anyone who has completed a previous class, group or webinar with Dr. Saline and is familiar with her 5C’s of ADHD approach. 

Group Format:

After an initial short check-in and moment of mindfulness, there will be a 10 minute teaching on the topic, followed by a discussion that includes individual consultations. You will receive a recommended reading list.
