The beginning of all possibilities is the moment when we see the truth without fear or avoidance. Communication and ideas transform confusion into possibilities. They are what hold us together, and remind us that we are not alone. I'm Dr. Adam Cox, a psychologist, author, and presenter.
For over a decade I've been consulting with schools worldwide, and have presented hundreds of professional development programs for independent schools and public school districts, healthcare organizations, and community groups serving children, adolescents and families.Along the way, my books have helped people improve social skills, communication, and provide practical approaches to managing ADHD.
One of my goals is to provide new solutions to some of the key challenges facing 21st century youth, and the underlying issues behind failure to launch, anger, or lack of motivation. By building on strengths and approaching problems with a positive attitude, we can be excellent teachers, parents, and therapists.

There is a deep chasm between what is known, and still being discovered, in psychology, neurology, and psychiatry, and the people who can most benefit from this important information: those who care deeply for the healthy development of children.
Unfortunately, there may be a 10-20 year lag time between research discoveries and the practical application of this knowledge in the classroom or clinic.
Yet recently, there have been remarkable discoveries in neuroscience that we need to understand now.
