Insights from Dr. Ross Greene's Training Session

This training will equip us with valuable tools to support our clients on their ADHD journey better.

Living with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder can be challenging for individuals and their families. However, with the proper guidance and strategies, it's possible to thrive despite the hurdles that ADHD can present. That's why REACH ADHD Coaching and Consultancy is excited to share our recent experience attending Dr. Ross Greene's training session. This training will equip us with valuable tools to support our clients on their ADHD journey better.

Understanding Dr. Ross Greene's Approach

Dr Ross Greene is a renowned clinical psychologist and author known for his innovative approach to understanding and managing challenging behaviour in individuals, especially those with ADHD. His Collaborative and Proactive Solutions (CPS) model emphasises collaboration between individuals with ADHD and their support network, aiming to solve problems and address challenges together. Dr. Greene's work has profoundly impacted how we approach ADHD coaching and consultancy.

We learned to empathise with their struggles and frustrations, which will allow us to build trust and rapport, which is essential for effective coaching.

Key Takeaways from the Training Session

We delved into various aspects of Dr. Greene's CPS model during the training session. Some of the key takeaways that resonated with us and our mission at REACH ADHD Coaching and Consultancy include:

1. Collaboration is Key: Dr. Greene's model prioritises collaboration over coercion. It recognises that individuals with ADHD are not intentionally tricky; they may lack the skills to navigate life's challenges effectively. By collaborating with them, we can identify and address the underlying issues causing their behaviour.

2. Empathy and Understanding: Understanding the perspective and experiences of individuals with ADHD is crucial. We learned to empathise with their struggles and frustrations, which will allow us to build trust and rapport, which is essential for effective coaching.

3. Problem-Solving Approach: Dr. Greene's model encourages a problem-solving approach to address the specific issues causing distress. This approach aligns perfectly with our goal of providing tailored strategies to help our clients overcome their challenges.
