here<\/a><\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\nThis presentation describes an “art-then<\/em>-science” approach to engaging neurodivergent youth and their caregivers \u2014 (who are often, not always neurodivergent as well) \u2014 in multimodal treatment for attention-deficit\/hyperactivity disorder, autism spectrum disorder, and their most commonly co-occurring conditions. With the goal of helping young people (and their caregivers) grow up to be informed, empowered and independent people who will live fulfilling lives while managing what are often lifelong neurobiological health conditions, the trauma-informed and neuro-affirming approach draws heavily from third-wave cognitive behavioral therapies like Motivational Interviewing and Acceptance & Commitment Therapy; Stephen Finn’s Therapeutic Assessment; and stage theories of cognitive and psychosocial development. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
Dr. Fogler<\/strong> has an extensive background in administering, teaching, and researching innovative therapies for challenging patient populations and psychosocial contexts, including ADHD, complex trauma, and other neurodevelopmental and psychiatric disorders. He is the Co-Director of the ADHD Program in the Division of Developmental Medicine at Boston Children\u2019s Hospital where he provides parent guidance, psychotherapy, and neuropsychological testing for children, teens, and young adults with what has come to be known as “complex ADHD” (ADHD with one or more co-occurring conditions). He is also the attending psychologist on a team devoted to children who have been adopted (domestically and internationally) or in the foster care system; and he routinely provides guardianship evaluations and supports transitional planning for young adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Dr. Fogler has authored over 50 publications, including educational guides for parents of children with ADHD, peer-reviewed clinical research and systematic reviews, and two edited books: \u200bTrauma Therapy in Context: The Science & Craft of Evidence-Based Practice<\/em> and \u200bTrauma, Autism, and Neurodevelopmental Disorders: Integrating Research, Practice, and Policy<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\nDr. Fogler’s trauma-sensitive and developmentally informed approach to evidence-based assessment and psychotherapy comes from a number of deeply impactful experiences working and training in the Greater Boston area from 1996 through the present with some of the major figures in clinical psychology and neuropsychology. He hopes that the NBI audience will see philosophical parallels and commonalities with their work with infants and their caregivers!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
