ADHD Support Revolution: Rethinking Interventions for Success

School for School Counselors Podcast

Do you ever feel like your interventions for students with ADHD are just not working as you expected? Join me, Steph Johnson, as we unravel some of the complexities of ADHD and focus on the concept of positive and negative urgency—an essential factor in understanding and supporting students with ADHD. Through a relatable example of a student shutting down in class, I'll walk you through the typical steps we take to intervene and how understanding the differences between negative and positive urgency can lead us to more intentional and targeted interventions, ultimately fostering an environment where students feel supported and successful.
Tune in as we dive into various interventions designed for students with negative and positive urgency. Discover why different approaches may be indicated for students based on the type or urgency involved. More importantly, we'll emphasize the significance of creating a safe space for students with ADHD to express their needs and how this understanding can lead to more effective interventions. Don't miss this enlightening conversation that will undoubtedly enhance your decision-making and academic success for students with ADHD.
