ADHD Diagnostic Evaluations
Difficulty focusing. Constant procrastination. Feeling overwhelmed by everyday tasks. Struggling to stay organized despite your best efforts.
You may be wondering if ADHD is contributing to your day-to-day struggles.
Our focused ADHD Diagnostic Evaluations are designed to help answer the question:
"Do I have ADHD?"
Sometimes the answer is yes. Sometimes the answer is no. Sometimes the answer is maybe.
Attention and concentration difficulties can also be related to Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, OCD, Bipolar disorder and other mental health concerns.
Our goal is not simply to diagnose ADHD. Our goal is to help you better understand what may be contributing to your symptoms, determine whether ADHD may be present, and recommend appropriate next steps.
