Joining me for this week’s episode is Russell Barkley, Ph.D. Dr. Barkley is a clinical professor of psychiatry at the Medical University of South Carolina. He is a clinical scientist, educator, and practitioner who has published 23 books, rating scales, and clinical manuals. He has also published over 270 scientific articles and book chapters related to the nature of assessment and treatment of ADHD and related disorders.

This leads to an interesting discussion on attachment and relationships with people diagnosed with ADHD. In the second half of this conversation, Russell shares a lot of the recent findings on gender in ADHD, adult onset, neuroimaging, genetics, environmental factors, and psychosocial treatments.
