This book provides an overview of the ACCESS program, a mental health
program that has been developed and tested as an efficacious treatment
for college students with ADHD. This program is at the cutting edge of
clinical research, incorporating treatment strategies that allow for
dissemination in real world settings in order to effectively assist
college students experiencing difficulties in their academic, personal,
social, and emotional functioning. As cognitive behavioral approaches
have proved to be the most successful psychological treatments to date,
the techniques in this volume follow that model in a detailed and
nuanced fashion. The authors provide a week by week breakdown of the
program, supplemented by handouts and worksheets designed to facilitate
better understanding of the areas targeted by the program. Filling a
notable gap in research addressing the ADHD college student population,
CBT for College Students with ADHD is a crucial resource for campus
mental health practitioners as well as a broad range of clinicians
dealing with emerging adults.
