Sari Solden & Associates is a private practice in Ann Arbor, MI, that specializes in providing psychotherapy and consultation and assessment to men and women with ADHD and their loved ones. I didn’t really decide to learn about my disability until about a year ago, when my therapist recommended reading materials for my ADHD and I stumbled across this book via Audible. I realized that, by learning more about my ADHD, I am finally putting MYSELF in control. A Radical Guide for Women with ADHD is the first guided workbook for women with ADHD designed to break the cycle of negative self-talk and shame-based narratives that stem from the common and limiting belief that brain differences are character flaws. In this unique guide, you’ll find a ground-breaking approach that blends traditional ADHD treatment with contemporary treatment methods, such as acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), to help you untangle yourself from the beliefs that have kept you from reaching your potential in life.

A Radical Guide for Women with ADHD: Embrace Neurodiver… A Radical Guide for Women with ADHD: Embrace Neurodiver…

A Radical Guide for Women with ADHD” is a game changer in empowering women to accept their neurodiversity. This book guides through exercises that take reader by the hand and accompany them on the journey of discovery as they look deep into their hearts to define their challenges and do the necessary work to choose a path to a stronger more confident and peaceful life. Never in my adult life as a woman, have I found a tool so useful and empowering in regards to my ADHD, which has been absolutely debilitating in the past. I recommend this book to everybody I know who struggles with ADHD symptoms, as well as to the people who love them and want to understand them. My perspective on ADHD has shifted to the point that I hardly notice it as an inconvenience. I feel much more acceptance, ease and joy in my life, and a general sense of optimism and excitement for the days to come. This particular passage resonated with me. This is only one of the many passages that will resonate with women who live every day with their ADHD.As I read, I found myself enjoying the interactivity. Sari and Michelle have a warm, conversational tone. They share ideas in an always caring and sometimes humorous way. They include stories from other women with ADHD, reaffirming you are not alone. And throughout, they ask you questions that encourage you to get to know yourself better. No one has all the answers. They sure don't have YOUR answers! Sari and Michelle never pretend they have all the answers. I love that they help you ask the right questions. I wish I had this book twenty years ago. Save yourself twenty years; get it today."

Women with ADHD - ADDA - Attention Deficit A Special Gift to Women with ADHD - ADDA - Attention Deficit

The solutions they DO talk about come with caveats like, strategies need to be personalized, and come from a place of power instead of pain. Overall, here’s the big idea the authors (who earned bonus points for being women with adhd themselves) state that moved me: To celebrate October's ADHD Awareness Month, I'm excited to announce that I have an exclusive live event happening on Thursday, 19th October, at 7 pm UK time. This will be a live interview and Q&A session with esteemed ADHD psychotherapist and author Sari Solden. Sari and Michelle are your super-smart, empathic friends who have been there before you and want to save you a lot of unnecessary suffering. They won’t tell you what to do, but, like any good friends, they will help you figure out what you want to do. Your ADHD symptoms may or may not be better after reading this wise, insightful book, but your life definitely will be.” Living with ADHD affects the development of one's view of self, especially for those not diagnosed until adulthood, who have spent many years of feeling "different" without knowing why.

Sari Solden & Associates was built on a foundation of expertise in ADHD, but is also influenced by minority mental health and multi-cultural considerations, mindfulness-based practices, psychoeducational guidance, narrative therapy, and women’s psychology. Personally, I am a very straight forward no bullsh*t woman, and found some of this content to be a little soft and overtly feminine for me. Which, I understand, when learning about ADHD, we sometimes need as ladies. If you're ready to develop a strong, bold, and confident sense of self, embrace your unique brain-based differences, and cultivate your individual strengths, this step-by-step workbook will help guide the way. I would have appreciated an elaboration on why the authors used the term “invisible differences,” and not “invisible disability.” Understanding and embracing disability, especially invisible disability, is empowering and helps me assert my rights and connects me to other people with shared experiences. Most importantly, it makes me question normalcy and privilege. The book seems to distance itself from the term and I just can’t imagine why.

Sari Solden, for years the great pioneer in working with women and ADHD, has now teamed up with Michelle Frank to create this dynamic, valuable workbook that will help women embolden themselves to break out of whatever self-imposed exiles they may have lived in and soar to the heights they deserve and will love.” A lot of it is is framed as *despite what you believe, you can still achieve some level of a normal life and may even achieve some limited success* which is so bleak.Having ADHD as a woman poses its own unique challenges. Here are some of the best books for ADHD in women, from scientific texts to memoirs. This book teaches you how to love and accept yourself, and to question the 'shoulds' that society forces upon everyone. This is a guide to help you do the important work that comes before ADHD strategies can be effective. Don’t misunderstand—strategies are essential when you live with ADHD. But are you looking for strategies that will allow you to reach your goals? Or are you looking for strategies that will help you blend in with the neurotypicals? Without understanding, you cannot accept. Without acceptance, there is no path to living out loud with ADHD. Maybe I don’t have ADHD. Maybe I am just “trash” (the internal “not enough” monologue that rings through my head daily). But there are tears in my eyes writing this review for the way I feel seen and normalized instead of shamed and ostracized. And as a result of this book (and some lovely humans who have entered my life and encouraged me), I’m beginning my journey of testing/diagnosis for ADHD, finally, at the age of 37. If you’re ready to develop a strong, bold, and confident sense of self, embrace your unique brain-based differences, and cultivate your individual strengths, this step-by-step workbook will help guide the way.
