ADHD-Models, Policy, Families, Treatment Strategies and Stigma

 

with  

Stephen P. Hinshaw, Ph.D.

Stephen Hinshaw is Professor of Psychology at the University of California, Berkeley, where he served as Department Chair from 2004-2011, and is Vice Chair of Psychology (and Clinical Professor of Psychiatry) at UC San Francisco.  He received his B.A. from Harvard (1974, summa cum laude), and his doctorate in clinical psychology from UCLA (1983).  After a post-doctoral fellowship at the Langley Porter Institute (UCSF), he joined the Berkeley faculty.  His work focuses on developmental psychopathology: peer and family relationships, neuropsychological risk factors, pharmacologic and psychological interventions for children with ADHD, assessment and evaluation, conceptual and definitional issues, mental health problems in teenage girls, the stigmatization of mental illness, and international training efforts.

 

ADHD is skyrocketing in terms of prevalence and controversy.  This talk will separate facts from myth, discuss the huge discrepancies in diagnosis and treatment that exist, probe underlying models, emphasize family factors, and cover medication and family-oriented treatments.  Stigma will also be covered.
