About Me
Dr. Rostain's clinical focus is “lifespan neurodevelopmental psychiatry,” which includes patients of all ages with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism spectrum disorders, Tourette syndrome, learning disabilities (verbal and nonverbal), and related social learning disorders.
Dr. Rostain's research interests focus on improving clinical outcomes for patients across the lifespan with neurodevelopmental disorders, and on creating effective service systems for these patients and their families. He has co-authored two books on adult ADHD, entitled The Adult ADHD Tool Kit: Using CBT to Facilitate Coping Inside and Out, and Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy for Adult ADHD: An Integrative Psychosocial and Medical Approach (Routledge). He is also co-author of a book on college mental health entitled The Stressed Years of Their Lives: Helping Your Kid Survive and Thrive During Their College Years.
