Purpose Based on eight research criteria, this study examines the feasibility of a 5‐week Family Strength‐Oriented Therapeutic Conversation (FAM‐SOTC) for caregivers of adolescents diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD); this intervention aims to improve outcomes of both caregivers and adolescents. Design and Methods The FAM‐SOTC intervention was implemented at an adolescent psychiatric outpatient unit with 10 caregivers of 10 adolescents diagnosed with ADHD. The feasibility criteria were addressed through survey responses, diary reports, and a one‐group pre‐ and posttest quasi‐experimental design. Findings The assessment of eight feasibility criteria showed promising results for the further evaluation of the intervention. Practical Implications This feasibility study has produced promising results, which represent a step toward a more extensive study, designed to evaluate a protocol that may offer educational and supportive programs for families of adolescents with ADHD, enhancing their self‐management behavior. Further studies are warranted to test the FAM‐SOTC intervention using a larger sample.
