Do you, or someone you know, struggle with ADD or ADHD? Even if you have never been diagnosed, have you ever experienced difficulties with paying attention or sitting still? Did you know there are other ways to manage these symptoms besides medication? With over 10% of school-aged kids being diagnosed with ADD and ADHD, we wanted to have a conversation with Avigail Gimpel to give listeners tangible tips on how to manage these systems for yourself or loved ones.

Avigail Gimpel received her Bachelor’s degree from Touro college and completed her graduate studies at Touro College Graduate School for Special Education in Manhattan, New York. Avigail continued her education in Israel, earning advanced degrees in teaching reading to children with Dyslexia and cognitive education for children with ADHD symptoms. She immersed herself in studying and developing treatment options for ADHD for her own six kids and many struggling students. She collaborated with her father-in-law, Dr. Amnon Gimpel (psychiatrist and neurologist), and developed a parent training program. She moved on to develop a teacher’s training program.

Now Avigail Gimpel teaches in Hertzog college, as well as lectures in Israeli schools and to parent groups all over Israel. She works in private practice, training parents to become ADHD coaches to their children, and spouses to learn a new love language to communicate with respect. She published her first book, “HyperHealing”, in 2021 based on many years of research and practice both as a mother of a good number of kids diagnosed with ADHD, as well as a classroom teacher of children struggling with ADHD symptoms. Her second book HyperHealing, Show me the Science was recently released in October 2022.
