You will learn the evidence basis for the efficacy of MBT as a legitimate treatment choice in your toolkit for ADHD, derived from previous research. You will be exposed to the overall approach in introducing MBT to your ADHD patients, whether you choose to refer them to third-party programs, or begin to deliver all or portions of this program yourself.
