About this Event
A 3-hour workshop presented by Associate Professor Melanie Porter, Senior Clinical Neuropsychologist , Single Expert and Academic
Is it Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)? Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)? Trauma? Something else entirely? Or a combination of the above?
In an evolving landscape of clinical and societal perspectives, diagnostic clarity has never been more important. This workshop is designed for psychologists and other professionals working in health, child protection, civil / criminal legal contexts and advocacy, seeking to ensure their practice keeps pace with contemporary approaches to the conceptualisation, neuro-affirming practice, assessment, and diagnosis of ADHD and Autism Spectrum Disorder. The workshop will cover:
- The latest clinical practice guidelines for ADHD and ASD
- Key features and diagnostic considerations in ADHD and ASD
- Differential diagnosis and common co-occurring conditions
- Overlaps with trauma and other presentations that may appear similar
- Strengths and limitations of commonly used screening and assessment tools
- Practical implications for formulation, referral, support, and advocacy.
