Discover the ADHD Dude Method

Does this sound like your child?

  • Highly argumentative or oppositional at home
     
  • Thoughtful at times, but struggles to consider others’ needs
 
  • Becomes destructive or aggressive when not getting their way
 
  • Impatient, yet shows no urgency for tasks they don’t prefer
 
  • Has difficulty understanding how they come across to peers
  • Often uncooperative, yet expects you to respond right away
 
  • Can make friends but has trouble keeping them
 
  • Overreacts, then acts as if nothing happened
 
  • Uses helplessness or self-defeating talk to avoid non-preferred tasks
 
  • Needs constant supervision to complete routines

These patterns are common in kids with ADHD, and they can change

when parents know what to do differently.

Parents in more than 50 countries use ADHD Dude to improve behavior, build cooperation, and create calmer homes.

What Parents and Professionals Are Saying 

Hear from parents who’ve seen real changes at home and professionals who trust the ADHD Dude Method in their own work with families. 

"...We started down this ADHD path 7 years ago with our son and have spent countless dollars, time and frustration on all the treatments you mention do not work. Since implementing your recommendations we have seen positive growth in our son... I am also a Nurse Practitioner and have been spreading your info to any and all who will listen to me. Thank you for what you do!"

"We are really looking forward to this release; we recently started watching your videos, and after years of meeting with therapists, finally feel like we’ve found someone who resonates with us and our concerns about or son functioning in reality. Can’t wait to learn more!!"

"What I appreciate about you most is you tell exactly what needs to be done. I’ve learned so much over the years about WHY my son struggles but I feel no one can tell me what specifically I need to do in order to help him. You give very clear, tangible practices…I feel like I’ve been screaming for someone to just tell me what it is I need to do. Very, very excited about all of it."

"Ryan, I just want you to know that I am a Community Paediatrician in the UK and I prescribe extensively for ADHD. I am also a mum to a boy with ADHD and I find your advice is spot on. I signpost my patients to your resources."

You deserve clear solutions that actually help your child

If you’re raising a child with ADHD, you’ve probably been given advice that sounds compassionate — but doesn’t change behavior. You’re not alone in feeling frustrated or unsure what to try next.

I’m Ryan Wexelblatt, LCSW, founder of ADHD Dude, licensed therapist, former school counselor, and dad of a son with ADHD and ODD.
I created ADHD Dude to give parents clear, evidence-informed tools that improve behavior, cooperation, emotional regulation, executive functioning, and social skills.

When parents start using these strategies, they finally see progress. Family life feels steadier, kids grow more capable, and parents lead more confidently.

Confident Parents, Capable Kids.
