Welcome to Thriving with ADHD, presented by Animo Sano Psychiatry, where we explore valuable strategies for living well with ADHD. In this episode, host Nada Pupovac introduces Cherry Noor, a new physician assistant at Animo Sano Psychiatry, who brings a wealth of experience and fresh insights to our discussion. Together, they delve into the complex relationship between ADHD and trauma, a topic that has not been covered before on our podcast.
Join us as Cherry sheds light on the overlapping neurobiological pathways that intertwine ADHD and trauma, making diagnosis challenging yet critical. She discusses the increased susceptibility of individuals with ADHD to traumatic experiences due to impulsivity and inattentiveness, and how these conditions can exacerbate each other if not addressed comprehensively.
Cherry shares effective strategies for treatment, emphasizing an integrative approach combining ADHD medication with trauma-focused therapies such as EMDR and cognitive behavioral therapy. Hear about the crucial role of family and caregivers in providing a stable, supportive environment and the importance of psychoeducation to empower both individuals and their support systems.
Whether you're a provider or someone navigating life with ADHD and trauma, this episode is packed with insights and resources, from specialist support networks to practical at-home strategies. Discover how comprehensive care can pave the way for a brighter future, fostering resilience and well-being for those affected by these intertwined challenges. Tune in for a conversation that promises to be both enlightening and empowering.
