myself and my team of experts will all use. I highly recommend this

Some parents struggle to find the right book to help them develop a
behavioral parenting plan, but now they have the perfect book!
Thriving with ADHD makes the concepts clear, makes planning easy
and fun, and is a great starting point for any parent working on a
behavioral approach to helping their child."--Keith Seibert, MD

"It took me two decades to learn how to turn the challenge of my
childhood ADHD into my greatest strength. Through engaging games
and powerful mindfulness practices, Kelli helps children learn
self-regulation while having fun. Children learn both to view their
condition in a positive light as well as effective organizational
skills. I only wish your workbook was available when I was a
child."--Pejman Katiraei, DO, Fellow of the American Board of
Pediatrics and Founder of Wholistic Kids and Families
"Kelli transforms the ever-dreaded diagnosis of ADHD into a "glass
half-full" rather than a "glass half-empty" experience by
demonstrating the positive aspects of the condition. She teaches 60
self-help activities, easily applicable in all areas of a child's
life. Kelli brings a wealth of personal and professional experience
to the table with a friendly and readable style. Thank you, Kelli,
for providing this much-needed toolbox for kids!"--Debra Mandel,
Ph.D., Psychologist, Author, and TV/Radio Personality
"Kids with ADHD, along with their parents, teachers, and
counselors, will find much to like and learn from in this valuable
(and fun!) book filled with practical information, games, and
exercises. Among its best features: accessible tools for
self-understanding, helping kids to see themselves in a new,
positive light--along with ways to work on making their lives
easier and more rewarding. The "strengths-based," uplifting
approach builds on solid research that not only counteracts the
stigma of "having a problem" but also shows a clear path
forward."--Daniel Keating, Author of Born Anxious: The Lifelong
Impact of Early Life Adversity--and How to Break the Cycle, and
Professor of Psychology, University of Michigan
"This book is a great resource for children with ADHD and their
families. It is accessible, educational, and includes many
thought-provoking activities that can help kids succeed and feel
more confident. I appreciate the humor, personal perspective, and
the strength-based approach of this workbook. I will be
recommending it to families!"--Joshua Mandelberg, MD,
