About this listen
Insights and best practice for professionals on ADHD in girls and women.
Written by expert professionals, this book provides comprehensive information about available support for women and girls with ADHD and tips for clinicians and professionals who work with them.
The symptoms of ADHD are no less impairing in females than males but can be missed or misunderstood. This book arms professionals, parents and women themselves as it maps out where to go for information, who can help and how to understand ADHD better. It explains routes to assessment and diagnosis for girls and young women, how to access support in education, available treatments and the impact of living with ADHD on overall mental health. It explores the benefits of ADHD coaching for girls to help develop their unique strengths and talents.
There is also a focus on ADHD diagnosis for women in adulthood and specific advice about treatment and medication for later in life. Central to the book are the personal experiences of ADHD from women and girls from a variety of backgrounds. These tell of late diagnosis, missed opportunities, a lifetime of adaptations and the power of recognition and treatment and are powerful stories for professionals and individuals with ADHD alike.

Solidifying, Smart and Validating
I did skip the treatment part but that's because I was interested in other findings and I really appreciated this from a resource perspective. If there's an Australian list of websites I'd love to know. If you have been diagnosed or suspect, definitely give this book a listen!

Great resource
Great research and structure. Has both topic and chapter reviews, which is great for people with memory issues and attention disregulation.

Don’t listen if you have or suspect you have ADHD
This audiobook is extremely difficult to pay attention to if you have or suspect you have ADHD. Perhaps a great resource for those who don’t have ADHD and need some help with the relationships of those who do but I couldn’t finish it. The constant references from where the author got information from combined with the narrators voice makes it hard to keep focus and enjoy listening for any period of time, so I gave up.
