BIPOC Clinicians with ADHD

Professional online group consultation sessions

Are you tired of feeling like you’re always struggling to balance your personal life and navigate the day-to-day management of your practice?

Do you yearn for a supportive space to connect with others who understand your unique experiences on a personal level?

It’s time to stop feeling alone and overwhelmed and find the support you need in our professional group for BIPOC clinicians with ADHD.

EQUIP YOURSELF TO WIN IN LIFE & AS A CLINICIAN

  • Get real-time support that will help you beat the issues that come with ADHD and set you up to start doing the things you have been procrastinating on. 
  • Discover new ways of organizing your life and creating routines that help you thrive. 
  • Join a community of BIPOC therapists who are focused on taking their practice to the next level and not letting anything including ADHD hold them back.
Are you ready to start thriving?

Struggling with planning, prioritizing tasks, organization, and time management are NOT uncommon for ADHD’ers, but they show up differently when you are a therapist.

You have to deal with the demands of your clients, staying on top of documentation, managing multiple emails and phone calls, and most importantly, keeping up with your licenses (CEUs are always there!)

When you add in the challenges of translating therapy interventions to be culturally relevant for the populations that you serve- you can find yourself feeling isolated and in need of others who understand the professional conflicts that come up for clinicians of color.

Finding a community of other clinicians experiencing the joys and challenges of living with ADHD can be radically transformative.

Imagine a community of other clinician navigating the ups and downs of living with ADHD just like you.

Imagine other clinicians with whom you can swap war stories as well as tangible tools for managing ADHD.

Imagine a community that affirms your struggles as a clinician with ADHD while giving you the support you need to thrive in the midst of the chaos.

THIS AND MORE IS WHAT THE BIPOC CLINICIANS WITH ADHD GROUP IS ABOUT …

Fostered by psychologist and ADHD specialist, Dr. Shauna Pollard, the virtual BIPOC consultation group for ADHD clinicians is designed to empower you to find new ways to navigate familiar challenges so you can stop surviving and start thriving.

For six weeks, you’ll connect with other ADHD clinicians who are passionate about the work that they do but need to learn and grow from other clinicians who get it.

I know that it can be hard to decide where to invest your time and energy. We’re often drawn to so many different trainings and workshops and it feels like there’s one more thing to learn.

This might be the right group for you if:

  • You’ve been feeling alone in managing your ADHD and you are looking for a safe space to talk about the challenges you face.
  • You don’t mind having an additional tax deduction for 2023, especially when you know you’ll make the money back (and then some) by tightening up your systems and coming up with better ways to track your income and deductions.
  • You are exhausted from putting up a front that everything is alright when you are swimming in chaos. 
  • You thrive in community and you know you learn best and feel inspired from seeing others who are doing what you aspire to do. 
  • You are a BIPOC Clinician. 
  • You want to level up your practice.
 

Finding other clinicians experiencing the joys and challenges of living with ADHD is a game changer.

Who wouldn’t want to build community with other clinicians navigating the ups and downs of dealing with ADHD?

It’s a guaranteed way to uplevel your network AND to learn from other clinicians who can share their preferred strategies for success. 

Join psychologist and ADHD specialist, Dr. Shauna Pollard, for a virtual BIPOC consultation group for ADHD clinicians that is designed to empower you to find new ways to thrive.

What others are saying...

Yeah, I think immediately, just making the commitment to myself, [designating] some time, [designating] some finances to something that's been so challenging - that felt really good. In terms of successes, I really appreciated the comradery in the group. The me too, I get it- you’re not alone. And right away, I would say in the first minute, I was already like OMG this was like so impactful. I think you were talking about the ADHD tax and thinking about what has been the cost of this ADHD being unaddressed. I even shared it with my brother. And he ended up getting connected with an ADHD Coach.

It was phenomenal, it exceed expectations. In part because there was structure, but also some room to be able to explore what it was that needed to come up.

I think, uh, the importance of what it means to have habits. And understanding habits that serve you and habits that don’t serve you. What it means to establish habits to support goals. I’m not just going to feel like doing notes. That’s never going to be a thing. So I need structure and habits. Having a place amongst likeminded people and people with similar experiences.

Looking for tools and things that make the whole process of what it means to be a therapist easier. Has a keyboard. Has a wireless mouse. What is going to help me be most comfortable. Giving more thought. What’s going to optimize how I function and work. This conversation around notes. My attention is always going to want to be pulled. I feel more successful with it [Notes].

Notes are going to be an ongoing thing that you just have to engage with. This is a way to make notes less daunting. It’s not going to solve everything, but hopefully it will provide some solutions and techniques and ways to reimagine how you engage with your notes. Because that’s what has happened for me.
Participant #3J.M., Psychologist in CA
The fact that this group existed… This group was made for me. Tailored and specialized.

The fact that it existed gave new life and hope and normalization to the wacky ways that my brain works and the marginalization experiences that are part of being a clinician of color, but also intersecting with ADHD.
Participant #4J., Physician, USA
Thank you for all the insight, wisdom and support from the group....I've tackled my massive charting backlog of 230+ notes!! You all were instrumental in my getting my notes done--so thank you!! I think the biggest game changers were the collective support and energy of this group, accountability plan w/ my therapist and co-working!

Hi, I'm Dr. P!

I was a late diagnosis. By the time I even started to seriously consider ADHD, I’d already completed a whole dissertation for my PhD (200+ pages). Finally getting an ADHD diagnosis brought up so many different emotions ranging from relief & hope to guilt & resentment. 

I always knew that something was different about me. I stayed friends with the Lost and Found. Getting locked out of my place happened several times a year.  If I didn’t do things quickly, I might never circle back. I got in trouble for talking too much & sometimes I noticed people zoning out when I felt I still had so much left to say (grrr).

I’ve got tons of stories of the chaos that resulted from my ADHD. However, learning about my ADHD made me so appreciative of the brain that I had, and how I made it work for me over the years. 

Learning about ADHD through my clinical training and through the eyes of my clients, gave me a new appreciation for having ADHD. The hyperfocus, my sparkling personality, my ability to make quantum leaps in a discussion that only other ADHD people can keep up with, the fact that I get to talk all day (and write) professionally, and my excitement about doing ALL of the things. 

I learned (and I continue to learn) how to live alongside my ADHD. I am aware of many of the ways that it shows up and I’m happy to let it work for me when I can. I also work to keep my areas of struggle in check. These days, I’m not only a clinical psychologist. I’m an entrepreneur with a small team working to support my business. I love that I get to help people & do it on my terms and I want to show you how you can thrive with ADHD too!

As an ADHD clinician, you’re likely talented in many ways, but underneath the public successes are often deep personal struggles. You’re not alone! I’ve heard from so many clinicians who love the work they do but need support too.

Maybe you’ve been in professional spaces where you were the only one who looked like you. Or you’ve struggled to integrate the importance of race and culture with your clinical training. You’re not the only one.

The power of a community of therapists who are dealing with several experiences is unmatched. Together, we’ll explore strategies to help you leverage your ADHD strengths and manage your weaknesses in the professional realm. I’m so excited about this group and am looking forward to getting started.
