31: Parenting the Child You Have
SHOW SUMMARY:
In this episode, Dr. Nerissa Bauer and Dr Jennifer Dilts host Cindy Goldrich, a certified ADHD coach, mental health counselor and founder of PTS Coaching, to discuss strategies for managing power struggles and enhancing executive function skills in children with ADHD. Cindy emphasizes understanding the unique needs of each child, focusing on connection rather than control, and the importance of parents modeling executive function skills by verbalizing their thought processes. The conversation also touches on the challenges parents face in shifting their mindset, the role of schools in supporting children with ADHD, and the importance of collaboration between parents and educators. Cindy offers practical tips for parents to improve their relationship with their children and highlights the significance of being curious and understanding rather than judgmental.
