Understanding Trauma In Children Beyond The ADHD Diagnosis | Dr. Hasti Raveau, PhD, LP

Many parents are told their child has ADHD, but still feel that something deeper is going on.In this episode of Sage Connections, we explore trauma in children and how it can intersect with neurodivergence, especially ADHD. We talk about how trauma impacts the nervous system, why meltdowns and behaviors are often misunderstood, and what trauma informed support can actually look like for kids and families.I am joined by Dr. Hasti Raveau, PhD, licensed psychologist and owner of Mala Child and Family Institute. Together, we discuss how trauma can show up in children, how it differs from ADHD alone, and how parents can better understand what their child’s behavior is communicating.This conversation is for parents who want clarity, compassion, and practical guidance in supporting their child.Guest InformationDr. Hasti Raveau, PhDMala Child and Family InstituteWebsite: https://www.malafamily.orgInstagram: @dr.raveauInstagram: @malainstituteConnect with Sage Physical Therapy and WellnessWebsite: https://www.sageptwellness.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/sageptwellnessEmail: [e-mail] this episode resonates, please subscribe, share it with a friend, or leave a review.
