Join the Not Broken Project for a thought-provoking webinar exploring one of the most debated topics in contemporary mental health: ADHD. Featuring special guest presenters and some of Australia's leading experts in the field, this session will examine competing ways of understanding attention, impulsivity, and hyperactivity, and what these different perspectives mean for assessment, treatment, and support.

While the conventional biomedical framework views ADHD as a neurodevelopmental disorder arising from underlying brain dysfunction, the Not Broken approach invites a broader conversation. It considers ADHD as a description of real and often disabling experiences while encouraging exploration of the person's life circumstances, relationships, environment, strengths, adversity, and coping strategies.

This webinar will explore concerns around rising ADHD diagnoses, increasing stimulant prescribing, the influence of brief screening tools, and the risks of over-medicalising everyday human struggles. Participants will gain insight into an alternative framework that emphasises individual formulation, transparent discussions about medication, and a wider range of supports including psychological approaches, educational strategies, coaching, family interventions, environmental modifications, and lifestyle changes.

Designed for clinicians, educators, parents, lived-experience advocates, and anyone interested in the future of mental health care, this webinar offers an opportunity to engage with diverse perspectives and consider how we can support people experiencing attention and behavioural difficulties in ways that are collaborative, compassionate, and evidence informed.

A timely conversation challenging us to ask not "What's wrong with this person?" but "What has shaped this person's experiences, and how can we best help?"
