AI and ADHD: A Clinical Look at Promise and Peril

Stephen Andrew Waller-DeLaRosa, LPC

Hosted by Megan Barnes Zesati, LCSW-S for the AI-Informed Therapist Series | May 18, 2026

This page gathers educational resources from the AI and ADHD presentation in one place: participant resources, clinician reference materials, the slide deck, and related links. Start with the participant handout and Close the Loop checklist; the clinician materials go deeper on scaffolding, avoidance, and clinical judgment.

Suggested path: start with the handout and Close the Loop checklist. Clinicians can use the reference materials below for deeper discussion and follow-up.
