Adult ADHD & Autism Evaluations

Adult ADHD and autism evaluations are crucial steps for individuals seeking to understand their mental health and cognitive functioning. These assessments typically involve comprehensive interviews, self-report questionnaires, and standardized tests to evaluate attention, focus, social interactions, and sensory sensitivities. By providing a clearer picture of one's strengths and challenges, these evaluations can help guide personalized treatment plans and identify appropriate support resources. Accurate diagnoses not only improve self-awareness but also empower individuals to navigate their daily lives with greater confidence and effectiveness.

Autism Evaluation

Autism evaluation is a comprehensive process designed to assess an individual's developmental history, behavior, and communication skills. This evaluation typically involves a combination of standardized tests, observations, and interviews with parents or caregivers to gather detailed information about the individual's strengths and challenges. Trained professionals take a holistic approach to ensure a thorough understanding of the person’s unique needs. The results of the evaluation can guide families in accessing appropriate resources, therapies, and support systems, ultimately fostering a better understanding of the individual’s experiences and enhancing their quality of life.

adhd & Autism Evaluation

A joint ADHD and autism evaluation in adults offers a comprehensive approach to understanding the unique behavioral and cognitive patterns that may be present. This thorough assessment includes detailed interviews, standardized tests, and clinical observations to identify symptoms and challenges related to both attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD). By evaluating both conditions concurrently, clinicians can arrive at a more precise diagnosis and develop an effective, tailored intervention plan that addresses the specific needs of the adult. The evaluation process is designed to empower individuals and their families with valuable insights into their strengths, challenges, and coping strategies, ultimately enhancing personal well-being and fostering more effective communication and support in various aspects of life.

What to Expect

Evaluation Process:

Step 1

Begin by reaching out to get started. Completing the contact form to help guide our next steps. We will follow up with a call. During the consultation, we will ask what your goals are for the evaluation and decide whether we would be the right fit for you. This is also an opportunity for you to ask any specific questions regarding the process or procedures.

Step 2

Prior to scheduling your interview, an email will be sent to you with a link. You will need to complete the initial paperwork and questionnaires before we schedule your session.

Step 3

Schedule and complete a 2 hour clinical interview session. We will explore your developmental history, family background, physical health throughout your lifespan, academic/ educational background, job/ vocational history, and social relationships. At the end of the interview, we will send along inventories for a close friend, family member, or partner to complete about you and send back to us.

Step 4

Schedule and complete 2 hour test administration. We use a combination of quantitative and qualitative assessment tools to better understand your strengths, challenges, and needs.

Step 5

After we review our records and write your report we will schedule a follow up session to discuss our findings, diagnosis, and recommendations. This is a collaborative process; we want to hear your thoughts, questions, and feedback prior to finalizing your report.

**Please note that if you are seeking a formal diagnosis for workplace or academic accommodations, a full neuropsychological evaluation by a licensed clinical psychologist may be a better fit for you. During our consultation, we will ensure that our services will meet your needs
