In addition to medication, therapy and behavioral interventions are the most popular treatment for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). I use these concepts and methods with my own adult ADHD patients. A large benefit of tracking ones thoughts and behaviors is that over time you can literally see your own progress when charted on a graph, which grants relief and continued inspiration for ADHD sufferers.

This workbook covers all the angles in the CBT of adult ADHD. It's useful in its structure and its content. While even manual based approached must be individualized, allowing the client to have all the homework assignments in one place and with full explanations is very valuable for the success of the outcome.

I bought this as a gift for my 29 year-old girlfriend who has adult ADHD. Once I got it and flipped through the pages, I knew how much it would help her in managing her life and couldn't wait until Christmas to give it to her. She agreed and can't wait to get started- I reminded her that she needs to finish studying for finals first ;-)

The book is well organized and written to be used with the monitoring and mentoring of a therapist but a very motivated individual can also use it on their own.
