CHADD meetings are held on the 2nd Tuesday of each month except July and August from 7:00-9:20 pm at the Severna Park United Methodist Church, at 731 Benfield Rd, Severna Park, MD. If Anne Arundel county schools are cancelled due to weather, then the meeting will be cancelled as well.
Our next meeting will be on January 13th. When ADHD Lives in the Family Room: Understanding Family Dynamics and ADHD with Rick Silver, MD
ADHD doesn’t stay in one brain, it shows up in marriages, parenting, communication, and daily life. We’ll explore how ADHD impacts roles, emotional load, conflict cycles, and expectations at home, whether you are the partner with ADHD, the partner supporting someone with ADHD, or both. Through real-life scenarios, self-reflection, group discussion, and practical tools, participants will gain clarity, language, and strategies to reduce resentment, improve teamwork, and create more realistic, compassionate systems for family life.
Bio: Rick Silver, MD is a psychiatrist who for many years has been practicing mind-body approaches to health, both in his personal and professional life. His experience with finding good care for two of his daughters with ADHD shaped the approaches he uses at THRIVE; a comprehensive mental health center with a specialty working with people with ADHD, which he opened 4 years ago. “A comprehensive treatment plan, one that incorporates medication, coaching, self-care, grounding and support for the family, is the only effective way to deal with a potentially life-altering condition like ADHD. “
Dr. Silver obtained his undergraduate degree from University of Michigan; a Master’s degree in Public Health from Johns Hopkins University; and his medical and psychiatric training from the University of Maryland School of Medicine. Dr. Silver is a Maryland native and has a wife, three daughters, two dogs, a cat and a rabbit. He spends a lot of time at work. In his spare time, he likes to play guitar, sing and write songs.
