Small Brooklyn Webinar: ADHD in Girls @ 12pm


ADHD in Girls with Small Brooklyn Psychology

Compared to boys, girls are less likely to receive a diagnosis of ADHD, or their symptoms aren't recognized until much later in life. How can you support your daughters with ADHD? Why does this lack of awareness happen so often? What are the costs associated with this under-recognition? Are outcomes different for girls of color or gender-diverse kids? Dr. Megan Moxey of Small Brooklyn Psychology will discuss her research and clinical experience with girls with ADHD, and Dr. Mandi White-Ajmani will moderate a Q&A session with attendees.



This webinar will help you:

  • Understand how symptoms of ADHD present in girls

  • Recognize differences in symptomatology between boys and girls

  • Weigh the different treatment approaches to support girls with ADHD 

  • Learn what you can do at home to support your daughters 


When: Wednesday, December 13th
Time:  12:00pm - 1:00pm

Megan Moxey, PsyD. is a clinical psychologist and post-doctoral fellow who specializes in providing evidence-based treatment to children, adolescents, young adults, and parents. She earned her B.A. in psychology from Adelphi University, her M.A. in Clinical Psychology from Columbia University, Teachers College, and Psy.D. in Clinical Psychology from Long Island University – CW Post. She then went on to complete her clinical internship at Aspire Health Alliance in Quincy, MA and received some postdoctoral training at Center for Anxiety in Boston, MA.
In addition to her clinical work experience, Megan has conducted research to understand the experience of parents who obtained ADHD treatment for their ethnic minority girls, specifically those whose parents identified as African American/Black and Latinx. Her research will be able to help increase understanding and to improve engagement and retention of families of ethnic minority girls with ADHD.

 

Dr. Mandi White-Ajmani is a clinical psychologist with extensive experience in neuropsychological assessment of children and adults from many different backgrounds.

Dr. White-Ajmani earned her BA from Cornell University and her MBA in Organizational Behavior and PhD in Clinical Psychology from Suffolk University. She completed her post-doctoral fellowship in clinical research in neuroscience and schizophrenia at NYU School of Medicine and then continued as a research scientist at NYU, investigating family violence.

Now, as a clinician, she conducts neuropsychological assessment with people of all ages, with a wide range of psychological concerns. She has built a special focus on working with children and families, to help them understand the practical nuances of how each person approaches the world a little differently—and then how to use that information to make real-world changes.
