Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurological condition and requires neuropsychological testing to be diagnosed. ADHD can cause behavioral changes, mainly affecting a person’s ability to pay attention and focus. Those suffering from ADHD experience symptoms like

• sitting still for long periods of time

• difficulty maintaining concentration

• difficulty learning

• memory problems

• anxiety

• depression

• poor impulse control

  
  
  

Adults with ADHD experience many of these symptoms, interfering with their personal and professional relationships.

At this time we only see patients who are 18+ years old.

What can I expect from an ADHD Evaluation?

The first step is a clinical consultation with a neuropsychologist. You will be asked a series of questions to determine any challenges, stressors, and or triggers. If necessary and with permission, the neuropsychologist will also interview family members, such as a spouse or siblings to get an outside opinion of the patient’s behaviors.

After the diagnostic interview, testing is conducted to reach a diagnosis. ADHD tests determine whether a person has ADHD and can identify other mental health problems that cause similar symptoms, such as autism, anxiety, depression, bipolar, or insomnia. ADHD evaluations typically span three hours.
