FREE RESOURCE FOR EDUCATORS

Your SEL program is doing good work…

...for most students.

A free, research-backed guide for educators navigating the gap between standard social-emotional learning and what students with ADHD actually need — written by a licensed clinical and school psychologist with 30+ years of experience.

If you've worked with students who have ADHD, you already know the look: the student who can't recover from a conflict, who misreads every social cue, whose emotions seem to arrive at full volume with no warning.

You've tried the calm-down corner. You've done the check-in. You've used the SEL framework your district invested in.
And it works — for most students. But not for these ones. Not consistently.

That's not a failure of your effort. It's a gap in how most SEL programs were designed. They weren't built with the ADHD brain in mind.

This free guide explains what's actually happening neurologically for students with ADHD when social-emotional demands arise — and what a more targeted approach looks like in practice.

What's Inside This Free Guide

A Better Understanding of Where The Gaps Are In Traditional SEL Programs

Inside this free resource, Dr. Tish explains:
  • Why ADHD is fundamentally a disorder of self-regulation, and what that means for SEL
  • The four specific areas where ADHD most disrupts social-emotional functioning
  • What common classroom behaviors actually signal beneath the surface
  • Practical, role-specific starting points for teachers, counselors, and administrators
  • A framework for knowing when to bring in specialist support

This isn't about labeling students or lowering expectations.
It's about understanding them accurately, so your interventions actually work.
