About This Event
Australian Association for Infant Mental Health (AAIMH) in Collaboration with Adelaide University present:
I Think My Toddler Has ADHD?
Join internationally recognised author and developmental-behavioural paediatrician Dr Claudia Gold for a one-hour presentation exploring how contemporary developmental science can inform our understanding of parental concerns about ADHD, autism spectrum disorder (ASD), anxiety, bipolar disorder, and other developmental and emotional differences in young children.
Rather than focusing solely on diagnosis, Dr Gold will present a framework for listening to and understanding parental concerns within the broader context of child development, relationships, and emotional wellbeing.
The presentation will be followed by an integrated expert panel discussion and audience Q&A featuring:
- Dr Claudia Gold – Developmental-Behavioural Paediatrician
- Dr Paul Denborough – Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist
- Dr Naomi Rutten – General Practitioner and Psychotherapist
Together, the panel will reflect on the clinical implications of this developmental approach and discuss practical applications for health professionals working with children and families.
Essential for all health professionals supporting children and families, this event will provide practical, contemporary insights into child development that can be applied across a wide range of clinical settings.
Learning outcomes:
- Understand developmental perspectives on early childhood behaviour and emotional development.
- Explore approaches to responding to parental concerns about ADHD, ASD, anxiety, and mood symptoms in young children.
- Consider the role of relationships, development, and context in clinical assessment and formulation.
- Apply developmental science concepts to everyday clinical practice with children and families.
