Praise for FOCUS on Women with ADHD
"I thoroughly enjoyed Kara's training. Her knowledge and expertise of ADHD was very apparent. From the beginning of the training, I could sense her passion for the subject, and her compassion for women and girls experiencing this was helpful to allow me to better imagine ways I might will engage with my clients. I believe this will help me with my advocacy work as well."
