Dr. Ned Hallowell is a child and adult psychiatrist,
as well as founder of the Hallowell Centers with offices in Sudbury (MA), New York, San Francisco and
Seattle. A specialist in learning differences, his 1994
groundbreaking New York Times bestseller Driven to
Distraction brought attention deficit disorder to the
general public. He has gone on to write 19 more
books on various psychological topics including Shine, Delivered from
Distraction, Dare to Forgive and The Childhood Roots of Adult Happiness. Dr. Hallowell’s major contribution to the field of learning is his
strength-based approach. Having both ADHD and dyslexia himself,
and having thrived with those conditions throughout his life, he sees
them not as disorders but rather as traits that can confer
enormous benefit. If these traits are managed well, they
can turbo-charge success. But if they are managed poorly
or not recognized at all, they can lead to disaster. For this

reason, Ned is committed to getting the message out to

recognize and capitalize on these traits.

Dr. Ned Hallowell is a child and adult psychiatrist,
as well as founder of the Hallowell Centers with offices in Sudbury (MA), New York, San Francisco and
Seattle. A specialist in learning differences, his 1994
groundbreaking New York Times bestseller Driven to
Distraction brought attention deficit disorder to the
general public. He has gone on to write 19 more
books on various psychological topics including Shine, Delivered from
Distraction, Dare to Forgive and The Childhood Roots of Adult Happiness. Dr. Hallowell’s major contribution to the field of learning is his
strength-based approach. Having both ADHD and dyslexia himself,
and having thrived with those conditions throughout his life, he sees
them not as disorders but rather as traits that can confer
enormous benefit. If these traits are managed well, they
can turbo-charge success. But if they are managed poorly
or not recognized at all, they can lead to disaster. For this

reason, Ned is committed to getting the message out to

Dr. Ned Hallowell is a child and adult psychiatrist,
as well as founder of the Hallowell Centers with offices in Sudbury (MA), New York, San Francisco and
Seattle. A specialist in learning differences, his 1994
groundbreaking New York Times bestseller Driven to
Distraction brought attention deficit disorder to the
general public. He has gone on to write 19 more
books on various psychological topics including Shine, Delivered from
Distraction, Dare to Forgive and The Childhood Roots of Adult Happiness. Dr. Hallowell’s major contribution to the field of learning is his
strength-based approach. Having both ADHD and dyslexia himself,
and having thrived with those conditions throughout his life, he sees
them not as disorders but rather as traits that can confer
enormous benefit. If these traits are managed well, they
can turbo-charge success. But if they are managed poorly
or not recognized at all, they can lead to disaster. For this

reason, Ned is committed to getting the message out to

recognize and capitalize on these traits.
