ADHD: Beyond the Diagnosis

An ADHD diagnosis can bring clarity and relief — but it also raises new questions. What does it mean to live well with ADHD over time? How do you move from explanation to integration?

In this keynote, General Practitioner, Dr Emilie Staehr, explores life beyond the label. Drawing on both clinical experience and lived insight, she examines how adults can build resilience across changing life stages.

This session considers what flourishing with ADHD can realistically look like. It will explore identity, structure, relationships, medication, and the role of sustainable habits in supporting long-term wellbeing.

Following the keynote, attendees will have the opportunity to take part in a coaching segment. The session will conclude with an “Ask Me Anything” discussion.

This event will be held on Friday 22nd of May 2026 from 12:30pm to 2:45pm and it forms part of Mildura Rural City Council’s Wellness and Resilience Forum. It is free to attend but please register your attendance via Humanitix (link below).

This event is suitable for adults with ADHD, those newly diagnosed, family members, anyone working in the ADHD space, and members of the broader community interested in mental health and resilience.
