ADHD
Assessments

If you or your child/adolescent is struggling with focus, organization, or feeling “out of step,” an Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) assessment can bring clarity and relief. We offer thorough, evidence‑based evaluations that help you understand what’s going on and what supports can make life easier. Our goal is to create a calm, welcoming space where every person — at any age — feels understood and supported.

What will you get out of the assessment?

At the end of the assessment, the information is put together and presented to you in a “feedback” session. This is where we provide you with our understanding of the difficulties, and if appropriate, there may be a clinical diagnosis of ADHD.

We may also provide a diagnosis of another mental health disorder if present, or recommend further assessment as a follow up.

You will receive recommendations for what can help – this could include therapy resources, ideas for improving daily living, recommendations for school/univeristy or for work.

What should
you expect?

  • We meet with caregivers for a clinical interview to discuss your child’s developmental history, school performance, strengths and specific concerns (1-2 hours).

  • Standardized questionnaires are completed by various individuals to provides a holistic view of your the concerns across different environments. 

    For children/teens we ask that questionnaires be completed by parents, your child/adolescent, and where applicable, teachers and coaches.

    For adults you will complete questionnaires directly, and in some cases we ask for a caregiver or spouse input.

    We will also review other sources of information like previous psychological/psychiatric reports, speech language reports, report cards etc.

  • The information will be presented to you in a feedback session where we review findings, explain any diagnoses, and discuss recommendations for how to best support your child. We also provide a child friendly feedback session where we explain results in a developmentally appropriate way to your child.

  • A detailed document containing test scores, clinical observations, and tailored recommendations for how to support your child at school and at home. The report will not be sent to anyone without your and/or your child’s consent.  You may find it helpful to share the report with other medical/mental health providers or the school for school planning (IEP and IPRC meetings).  For University Students we ask that you look into and share the university guidelines for accommodations set by the university to ensure our assessment meets their requirements.
