For this episode of Two Lost Souls we are joined by Dr. Helen Moya to discuss working with clients who experience comorbid Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder symptoms alongside mild-to-moderate mental health conditions. We discuss some background information to ADHD / ADD and take a look at why rates of referral and diagnosis for specialist ADHD treatment are on the rise. If you encounter clients with ADHD in your IAPT / Talking Therapies service, this episode serves as a useful tool to widen your knowledge base.

TLS and CPD

Good news! The BABCP have informed us that listening to CBT-related podcasts can count as some of your CPD! Hooray! Feel free to spread the word about the show to anyone who needs a few more hours on their log to maintain accreditation this year...

Socratic Questions

We answer a voicenote from Sharon about acknowledging other treatment modalities within IAPT.
