Consulting Group Professional Opportunity
We are currently retooling our professional training program due to high interest, with an expected release in mid-2026. Training will be available for current mental health professionals and certified coaches interested in learning how to work effectively with couples impacted by ADHD. Non-professionals may also take the course for information purposes without the live case study work.
If you would like to be notified when details about the 2026 training program are available, please complete this form and we will contact you as soon as the information is released.
ADHD & Marriage Professional Consulting Opportunities
We do add new professionals to our consulting roster from time to time. To be considered for the ADHD & Marriage consulting group, professionals must either:
- Complete the full ADHD & Marriage professional training program (once available), or
- Receive a personal invitation from Melissa Orlov
Please note that completing the professional training program does not guarantee a position as a consultant for ADHDmarriage.com.
Therapist Training for Practices and Personal Issues
Melissa & her trained professionals offer affordable therapist training sessions tailored to the needs of your specific practice or local professional group. Please contact us for more information.

Aids for Your Counseling Work
Is ADHD Impacting Your Relationship? information sheet. Download this handout for your waiting room or to give to those who might need it.
Seminar for couples complements your work: Many counselors recommend Melissa's books to their patients and clients as a great way to get conversations started about ADHD and its impact on the couple's relationship. In addition, counselors also recommend the live or recorded couples seminars to help 'jumpstart' the ADHD conversation and help both partners move beyond denial so that they may begin more productive therapy. If you have any questions about whether the course might be appropriate for your own patients, or if you wish to hear a sample of the course, please contact Melissa.
Treatment E-Book, "How to Optimize Treatment for Adult ADHD" provides an overview of how to think about treatment conceptually, as well as provides solid information about treatment options.
