A key part of the ADHD evaluation is a battery of standard assessments that help pinpoint and explore the different aspects of attention and functioning within the individual.

Psychological Assessments

Cognitive and Psychological Assessment for children, adolescents, and adults involves a complex process of evaluating an individual in order to gain a deeper understanding of how they uniquely function.

Using interviews and a comprehensive battery of tests, information is obtained and integrated. The psychological testing will determine whether a person has any specific diagnosis related to learning, emotional, personality, or relationship problems.

Based on the results of the testing, a diagnosis can be made and recommendations can determine a treatment plan, and identify the best academic accommodations and placement.
