Ari Tuckman, PsyD, CST, MBA
Even if you’re managing your ADHD well, sometimes you still need to work on tasks that you just don’t feel like doing. A looming deadline can kick you into gear but can also add a lot of stress. Some tasks are overwhelming, confusing, or vague and it’s hard to know where to start. All of this makes it easy to feel stuck and not know where to begin—or how. Ari Tuckman, PsyD, will share strategies to strengthen your mental muscles to handle uncomfortable situations like these, get more done, and suffer less in the process.
After this presentation, attendees will be able to:
- Apply strategies to overcome resistance to undesirable tasks, for themselves or their students, clients, or patients.
- Do the cognitive and emotional work to break down overwhelming or ambiguous tasks.
- Find the motivation to go toward discomfort rather than away.
