Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) Assessments

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder or ADHD is a neurodevelopmental disorder which is marked by a persistent pattern of inattention and/or hyperactivity that interferes with an individuals functioning or development.

ADHD testing is only available to clients aged 6 and up.

The purpose of ADHD testing is to evaluate a person’s symptoms and behaviors to determine whether they meet the diagnostic criteria for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). ADHD testing is typically done by a mental health professional, such as a psychologist, psychiatrist, or clinical social worker, and can involve a variety of assessment tools and methods.

The primary goal of ADHD testing is to help individuals who are experiencing difficulties with attention, hyperactivity, and/or impulsivity to receive an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment. An accurate diagnosis can help individuals understand their challenges and develop strategies to manage their symptoms, such as medication, behavioral therapy, or other interventions. It can also help individuals access educational or workplace accommodations that can improve their functioning and quality of life.

ADHD testing may also be helpful in ruling out other conditions that can mimic the symptoms of ADHD, such as anxiety or depression, and in identifying any co-existing conditions that may complicate diagnosis or treatment, such as learning disabilities or substance abuse. Overall, the purpose of ADHD testing is to help individuals receive an accurate diagnosis, tailored treatment, and support to manage their symptoms and improve their functioning.
