Our ADHD Assessment Process
We offer a comprehensive, multi-step process to ensure an accurate ADHD diagnosis. Each assessment is tailored to the individual’s age, needs, and circumstances.
The process begins with an in-depth discussion of developmental history. This involves gathering information from parents using a structured interview to understand ongoing concerns, goals for the assessment, and inform the testing battery.
Direct measures are administered including cognitive, executive functioning, and screening for co-occurring social emotional needs.
We use standardized questionnaires to gather detailed information from multiple perspectives — including parents, teachers, and, in some cases, the individual being assessed.
Our clinicians conduct collateral interviews with educators and/or providers working with the individual to get a fuller understanding of their functioning across settings.
After the evaluation, we meet to review test results, discuss diagnostic conclusions, and walk through tailored recommendations based on testing results. Recommendations cover intervention, academic, community, and home supports.
We provide a comprehensive report that includes test results, diagnosis, and detailed recommendations for managing symptoms.
