Lucy Jo Palladino, Ph.D., a psychologist with 25 years experience.
She helps people improve their attention skills. She was Principal
Investigator of a federal research grant and served on the clinical
faculty of the University of Arizona Medical School. She is the
author of Dreamers, Discoverers & Dynamos, a book that is helping
people change the way they think about Attention Deficit Disorder.
I had the good fortune to hear her speak to a workshop of special
education teachers on the very important skills needed to "focus
... give attention" and help a child that is feeling distress. She
has a center that advances the use of focus skills.
In her new website http://www.fearlessfocus.com/
she shares ten tips that parents may be helped by at the start of
the school year ... having to do with "bringing fearless focus,"
and more ...
