Breaking the Behavior Cycle: Practical ADHD Support for Counselors and School Teams
Date: September 30, 2026
Time: 1:00-2:00pm UTC
About this webinar
Students with ADHD are often not set up to succeed in school environments. When support is inconsistent or poorly matched to student needs, behaviors often increase, frustration grows, and punitive responses follow. This creates a cycle that does not serve students, teachers, or school teams.
In many international schools, the challenge is not understanding ADHD in theory. The real challenge is providing consistent, culturally responsive, evidence-based support on a daily basis in systems where identification is complex, resources vary, and change is high.
This interactive one-hour session helps counselors and school staff examine the cycle between unmet needs, escalating behavior, and punitive action, and identify practical ways to interrupt it. Participants will leave with strong understanding of behavior, examples for guiding teachers who wish for support, and realistic strategies to improve outcomes for students with ADHD while strengthening staff confidence and consistency.
