Discussing ADH’D’ with Trisha

Infinite thanks to the inimitable Trisha Goddard for inviting me into the TalkTV studio to get on my soapbox about… ADH’D’.

As an ADH’D’er, I feel it is critical to get the language right and set the record straight.

Tune in to find out more:

Just tuned in. Brilliant dialogue  great presentation! You bring so many important points around the need to change how we view and support ADH’D’er children and their families. I’m so glad you highlighted the lack of creativity and focus on physical education – as well as the therapeutic role of play to support children. Society needs to change, not the child!!! Keep up the amazing work.xxx

I love how you put things into words that my partner isn’t able to. This helps me to have more of an insight into his experience as an ADHDer, so, thank you. I wish more people understood.xx

Inspirational talk and excellent research from Mine. Mine was an excellent, clear speaker, she spoke with very little crutch words which made her a great talker and clear to understand throughout the talk. I learnt tremendous amounts of information and I will become a much better person from this talk. I have a lot of respect for you. There should be more people like you. You are my new role model!

Seminar Feedback

A FABULOUS addition to my bookshelf. Thanks for writing this book Mine. I’ve recommended it to all my students (who are scrambling to buy a copy). A long overdue look at childhood from an evidence-based neuroscience perspective, no pseudoscience, no hype, AND an enjoyable read. You’re my new hero!

Book Review: Sarah McKay, Neuroscientist, TEDx speaker, science communicator and Founder of The Neuroscience Academy

Working at Body & Soul, a childhood adversity charity, we see many people who have experienced significant trauma in their early lives. Mine’s research is crucial for understanding the effects of trauma and toxic stress on the brain, and sharing what can be done to transform these effects so that children and adults alike can thrive regardless of their past experiences. Great talk Mine!

Excellent! Listening to Mine made me realise that more people need to be informed about the neurological development of children and the power that love and nurture have!

Hello Mine. You gave a talk once at LJMU for Education studies and Early Years students. Ever since, I have been hooked on your work which has inspired me and I would like to thank you.

A very engaging and informative presentation. Can’t wait to buy Mine’s book and have a good read of the theory and evidence, to relate it to my own practices. Highly recommend!

Thank you so much for your training on achieving trauma-informed practice. It was incredible, thought provoking, reflective and practice changing.

ALL childcare practitioners/parents – anyone in the wonderful position to be in contact with children NEED to be aware of Dr Mine Conkbayir, her insight and utter brilliance.
