Dinner and A Chat on Childhood ADHD: From Assessment to Parenting Well

Dinner and A Chat aims to create third spaces for life-long learners, inspire dialogue, and promote health and well-being all while enjoying a good meal with excellent company.

We are launching our first Dinner and A Chat on the topic of Childhood and Adolescent ADHD with the aim of raising awareness around:

• What is ADHD and what are the signs to look for?
• What are the best ways I can support my child with ADHD, and when should I consider medications?
• When would it be helpful to get my child assessed?
• What are the strengths that ADHD brings out in my child, and how do we nurture that?
• How can we best support our child, especially in the home and school environments?

Our guest speakers and panelists will include:

• Daniel Waldman, MD, is a board-certified Adult, Child and Adolescent psychiatrist specializing in ADHD, neurodivergence and OCD. Dr. Waldman directly serves families locally in the South Bay and has an office in Hermosa Beach.
• Lev Gottlieb, PhD, is a neurpsychologist and Assistant Clinical Professor at UCLA and specializes in neurological testing & assessments and care coordination for children, adolescents and adults. Dr. Gottlieb is the co-founder of The Integrated Clinic, which provides comprehensive neuropsychological services.
• Elizabeth Maynard, MS, has been an educational therapist for over 30 years, providing Educational Therapy to students ranging from kindergarten to college and delivering individualized treatment plans to students with ADHD, Anxiety, Learning Differences, Processing Disorders, Autism, and Dyslexia. These plans include a parent education program, which emphasizes the role of parents in their child's success.
