Dear Colleague,

I appreciate your interest in learning more about Working Memory Training from Cogmed and am pleased to play a role in introducing you to this new treatment approach for attention and working memory problems.

Working memory is a key executive function that contributes to attention and important learning activities.  Based on a number of published studies, it is clear that many individuals with ADHD have a significant working memory deficit.  Cogmed's training program targets this critical executive function and has been shown in 4 randomized controlled studies to enhance working memory and attention in a variety of groups, including children with ADHD, normal adults, typically developing preschoolers, and adult stroke victims.  Successful replications by completely independent research groups have been reported at scientific meetings.

Based on these strong research findings, over 100 practices in the US and Canada have partnered with Cogmed to begin offering working memory training to their clients.  This includes a number of nationally recognized ADHD specialists, including several whose contribution to the field has been recognized by their election to the CHADD Hall of Fame. 

I would encourage you to learn more about Cogmed Working Memory Training.  This is a serious new approach to helping individuals with attention and working memory problems that you will enjoy learning about, regardless of whether you choose to incorporate it into your practice at this time.  Just complete and submit the form below and I will arrange to have Cogmed forward you an information package that includes a summary of published research, a reference list of published studies, and information about offering working memory training in your practice.  I believe you will find the information you receive to be interesting and informative.

Sincerely,
