Easily accessible and diagnostically accurate, Roach's focused treatment both 'normalizes' the child's self-awareness of inherent characteristics and range of ADHD behaviors and provides guidance and motivation toward better choices and steps for functioning in school, home, and the larger communities where they occur. As a clinician in schools, I clearly recognize the tools provided and accompanying treatment steps Roach details--that can allow for significant progress and identified goals for many different children struggling with ADHD. I hope to incorporate many features of her book in my own practice in the future. Brava!"" --Robert G Adler, LMSW, MSEd, school social worker ""This book is truly a masterpiece.

She provides an easy-to-read, practical guide to understanding and navigating ADHD. It is quite helpful for both children and adults who may be struggling with the diagnosis."" --Leonardo Vando MD"
