Adult ADHD Assessment
Our adult ADHD assessments are designed to provide a thorough, evidence-based understanding of your attention, executive functioning, and day-to-day difficulties. Assessments are conducted by registered psychologists and can assist with diagnostic clarification, workplace accommodations, treatment planning, and referral pathways for psychiatric review where appropriate.
The purpose of the assessment is to determine whether your presentation is consistent with ADHD, while also considering alternative explanations and co-occurring factors that may impact attention, executive functioning, and daily functioning.
All clients receive a comprehensive written report outlining clinical findings, diagnostic conclusions (where appropriate), and practical recommendations.
