Concurrent with their group work, students work individually with mentors to help them apply what they have learned in group, connect with campus resources, and deal with daily life issues. More specifically, mentors monitor student understanding of ADHD and help them apply behavioral and adaptive thinking strategies to situations that may occur outside of group treatment or perhaps are better suited to one-on-one rather than group discussions. As a way of addressing academic performance and personal success, mentors also provide guidance on how to access campus support units appropriate to student needs. In addition, mentors help students develop realistic goals, monitor their follow-through on achieving those goals, and provide students with ongoing support (Allsop et al., 2005) and personal coaching (Prevatt et al., 2011). All mentors have a background in psychology, ranging in experience from graduate students in nonclinical master’s degree programs to postdoctoral fellows in clinical psychology. During the first session, which occurs during the first week of group CBT, mentors review students' current academic and personal functioning, use of campus resources, challenges, and goals for treatment. In subsequent sessions, which run concurrently with the remaining seven weeks of group CBT, mentors perform a brief check-in with the participant, collaborate with the participant to set an agenda, review homework from the previous session, review group materials, set new goals and homework assignments, and cover other topics as needed and as requested by participants. The time spent on each of these areas varies according to the needs and interests of each student; applying the material presented in group that the mentor and student feel would be most helpful is emphasized. In the final session, mentors discuss ways for students to maintain their skills and performance once treatment ends.
During the maintenance phase, mentoring sessions are less numerous and even more flexible, guided primarily by student needs and preferences. Thus, some students may choose to use these sessions to review and refine their use of behavioral strategies, whereas others may opt for using these sessions primarily for personal goal setting and support.
