The ADHD Mom’s Guide to 504s, IEPs, and What to Say Next with Dr. Katrina Ostmeyer

What is your biggest challenge with ADHD?

You know your kid needs more support at school. You just don't know who to call, what to ask for, or which plan actually fits. Dr. Katrina Ostmeyer breaks it all down, from IEPs to 504 plans to independent educational evaluations, in language that actually makes sense.

In this episode: the real difference between an IEP and a 504, how to start the conversation with your school district, what to do if the team disagrees with you, and why collaboration almost always works better than confrontation. Dr. Ostmeyer shares from both sides, the clinical and the parental, including a second-grade teacher who changed everything by simply getting it.

First step: call your school. This episode tells you exactly what to say. Find Dr. Ostmeyer at www.beyondtheindividual.com.
