Treating adults with ADHD can be challenging and we all get stuck in our approaches from time to time. My goal with Professional Trailblazing is to share all the techniques I’ve developed over the 30+ years of working with ADHD adults. This will be a no-holds-barred sharing of my treatment techniques and philosophies. As we explore this new trail, you’ll be learning creative-yet-concrete concepts for treating adult ADHD, including, but not limited to:

  • The Emotional Distress Syndrome of ADHD

  • Strategic, therapeutic daydreaming

  • Mindfulness for short attention spans

MORE DETAILS:

  • The 12 sessions alternate between educational and case consultation format.

  • Max of 6 participants to ensure interaction for everyone.

  • No PowerPoint! Just vibrant discussion and dialogue, backed up with detailed PDFs.

  • Inclusion on my referral list—connect with potential clients in Austin and beyond. 

  • Everyone receives a signed copy of Focused Forward: Navigating the Emotional Storms of Adult ADHD; access to archived class recordings; and listening privileges at ADHD Town Halls, my virtual Q&A salon and brainstorming session for adults with ADHD.

This is not an ordinary ADHD training. James’ wisdom and expertise in ADHD is exceptional. I really enjoyed the journey he took us on in this training. I learned so much from him and I am able to apply his teachings both professionally and personally.

I experience James as a very knowledgeable, welcoming, personable, and warm instructor. I find his teaching method very engaging, inclusive, and fun. His easygoing nature and authenticity make the training go so fast and is so relatable that next thing I knew, the training was over. The material James presents is invaluable as he has brought to the field, not only extensive, quality, and quantifiable training and experience, but he has also vastly explored an area that addresses emotional distress in ADHD, and went as far as to coin the term Emotional Distress Syndrome of ADHD. I wholeheartedly recommend his Trailblazer Training to anyone who is in any way interested in learning about ADHD for both professional and personal reasons.

James Ochoa is a fantastic speaker and wonderful teacher. He offered. . .an experiential journey that led us through the basics of his integrative approach to treating this disorder. In keeping with the wild intensity that can be the ADHD existence, he has crafted interventions that capitalize on imaginative leanings while weaving in evidence-based practices which give the clients solid, concrete skills to practice and
use.
— Ellen Lindsey, LPC, LCSW, Counseling Austin
As an ADHD therapist in Austin, I had always wanted to study under someone with a masterful understanding of ADHD, and James Ochoa is that person—with over 30 years of experience and rave reviews from clients and therapists alike. His ADHD training is very detailed and has helpful takeaways you can immediately apply with clients. I continually look back at my notes from his training and plan to go through his training again to continue to grow my knowledge. His insight and understanding have fundamentally changed the way I work with ADHD clients and how I view ADHD personally.
