This Virtual Institute focuses on the clinical side of Adlerian psychology across a variety of settings. Below is the schedule of events:
Event Start - 8 AM CDT (US); Welcome by Hallie M. Williams Sr., NASAP President
Session 1 - 8:15-9:30 AM CDT - Calvin Armerding - “Hopes, Expectations, & Entitlements”
The presentation will address Adlerian theory’s concept of social equality by exploring how unmet hopes, expectations, and entitlements contribute to frustration and anger including when these feelings stem from perceived inequality or exclusion. We will discuss the role of belonging and inclusion in mental health, examining how diverse experiences and backgrounds influence clients' emotional responses.

Session 2 - 9:45-11:00 AM CDT - Judith Richardson-Mahre - Spill the Tea on ADHD
ADHD impacts up to 10% of the population and there are many misconceptions about what it is and what it isn't. Come learn the latest scientific information about ADHD and learn some practical skills to use with clients who are impacted by ADHD.
Break - 11:00-11:15 AM CDT
Session 3 - 11:15-12:30 PM CDT - Yogi Patel - Managing Change the Adlerian way
This presentation will review how Adlerian psychology supports managing change by fostering connection, community, and contribution.
