ADD/ADHD Diagnosis and Treatment: Taking the Science in Bite Size Pieces: Globaltraining

Announcing a forthcoming teleseminar series – Resolving the 10 Biggest Problems with ADD Medications – and a brief thanks that makes the point regarding the need for more public and professional education.

This summer I will be giving a webinar/teleseminar: 5 hours+ of the most useful clinical information on the diagnosis and treatment of ADD, – what works, what doesn't and why it doesn't work. These seminars will be recorded and available for all attendees in MP3 for your iPod, and will come streaming through your computer or by phone… I want to make this easy. -Excellent handouts as well, stay tuned as we get closer. – and some special gifts for those who decide to participate.

Tell your friends, family and colleagues to sign up here now for email updates so they can have the latest brain and body info on ADD, and watch for some free ADD goodies coming with the announcement.

Thanks Again Steve!
Special thanks for the warm and appreciative post over at Connecting the Dots from my colleague miles away, never met in person, but has been so helpful in starting up on my blogging career: Steve Borsch

Steve is one of those deep and sensitive guys who, as you will see when pop over to his blogsite, has considerable artistic talent, a consummate way with words, and a warm heart. Thanks so much Steve for taking the time to help me out, you are a serious forward thinking – read deep tech – player on top of all the team play attributes.

I wrote a comment over there on a subject near and dear to all of our readers over here at CorePsychBlog…  the amazing abyss that continues to present itself between basic, proven science – and public and professional belief systems regarding ADD/ADHD.

"The relationship between belief and knowledge is subtle. Believers in a claim typically say that they know that claim. For instance, those who believe that the Sun is a god will report that they know that the Sun is a god. However, the terms belief and knowledge are used differently by philosophers."

"The relationship between belief and knowledge is that a belief is knowledge if the belief is true, and if the believer has a justification (reasonable and necessarily plausible assertions/evidence/guidance) for believing it is true."  These notes and more from Wikipedia

Evidence and research do come together in office practice from brain to body, this teleseminar series will be a start of a deeper conversation. See ya there!

Do sign up now for email updates [upper right hand corner of this post] if you aren't on the list, we will not share your email with anyone!

  1. Erin,
    Thanks so much for the kind remarks! I am so much looking forward to doing the teleseminar series… and will have an interesting way for you to tell your friends even more easily when we near the kick off. First come, first serve.

    Right now am working on the book that will hit all of these issues over the left field wall. I will be changing my greeting on the site to let folks know about the book, will send a big post out about it tomorrow, and will have a book launch teleseminar when that one comes around.

    Thanks again, – as you know I do appreciate the opportunity to work with you.

    Best,
    cp

    One more thing-I knew there was a reason I was getting some great care in your office…because you believe in research and science-these too belonge as part of treatment for Mental Illness. Until everyone starting believeing and seeing this…maybe by then Mental Illnesses will not be consider as something of a “ghost” to those disbelievers. Those who suffer from mental illneses know how hard it is to convience others that you are really “sick” and that it is not something you are making up in your “head”…Sometimes it feels like we have a better chance sometimes in getting people to believe in ghost then we do of mentally illneses…
