Emotional dysregulation is a common yet often misunderstood challenge for individuals with ADHD, affecting participation in daily routines, relationships, school, and work. Occupational therapists are uniquely positioned to address the underlying sensory, environmental, and executive function factors that contribute to dysregulation.

This webinar explores the connection between ADHD and emotional dysregulation through an occupational therapy lens. Participants will learn how dysregulation presents across different environments and how contextual factors—such as sensory input, task demands, and social expectations—can influence emotional responses. The course will also provide practical, evidence-informed occupational therapy strategies to support regulation, improve participation, and build sustainable coping skills for children and adolescents with ADHD.

Target Audience: Occupational therapists, occupational therapy assistants, occupational therapy students
This occupational therapy continuing education course uses the following instructional methods: visual aides (ie slides), discussion board, guided note taking, and learning, and practice opportunities.
Content disclosure: This course does not exclusively focus on any specific product or service.
