ACCESS: Group CBT for College Students with ADHD - Introductory Price!
ACCESS is a research supported program based on Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) principles that gives college students with Attention-Deficit/ Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) the knowledge and skills necessary for academic, personal, and social success. ACCESS utilizes elements of evidence-based CBT programs for adults with ADHD (Safren et al., 2005; Solanto, 2011) that have been adapted to meet the unique developmental needs of young adults attending college. (Anastopoulos, 2022, from https://accessproject.uncg.edu/what-is-access/)
The goals of ACCESS are to:
Give students evidence-based knowledge of ADHD that is appropriate to their developmental level as young adults
Increase student awareness and mastery of behavioral strategies addressing their executive functioning needs (e.g., time management, organization, planning)
Teach students how to identify unhelpful/maladaptive thinking patterns and to replace them with helpful/adaptive thinking strategies
Increase student awareness and use of campus support services (e.g., disability accommodations, counseling, student health)
Interact on a regular basis with a Peer Coach who has received ADHD Coaching and has learned, practiced, and mastered many of the adaptive academic, emotional, and behavioral CBT skills.
Conceptually, successful attainment of these goals makes it possible for students to begin displaying improvements in their behavioral, executive, emotional, academic, and/or general life functioning
