Why should I get tested?
Getting tested for ADHD can be a transformative step. Whether you have long suspected ADHD or are exploring the possibility for the first time, an accurate diagnosis can:
- Provide clarity about your challenges
- Guide you toward effective treatment
- Help you better understand your brain and behavior

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is ADHD?
Attention‑Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by persistent patterns of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity that are developmentally inappropriate, interfere with daily functioning, and begin before age 12. ADHD often co-occurs with other conditions, such as anxiety, depression, or learning disorders.
What is the difference between ADD and ADHD?
“ADD” (Attention‑Deficit Disorder) is an outdated term that refers to inattentive-only ADHD. The current DSM‑5 recognizes three presentations of ADHD: predominantly inattentive, predominantly hyperactive-impulsive, and combined.
How do I know if I need to be tested for ADHD?
You may benefit from assessment if you consistently experience symptoms such as trouble focusing, impulsivity, disorganization, restlessness, or mood swings that affect daily functioning at home, school, or work. Our expert providers can evaluate your symptoms to determine if ADHD is present and distinguish it from other possible causes.
What happens if I leave my ADHD untreated?
Untreated ADHD can lead to higher rates of anxiety, depression, and other mental health issues. It can negatively impact relationships, academic or work performance, and everyday routines, contributing to impulsivity, forgetfulness, frustration, poor time management, mood swings, and overall reduced quality of life.
What ages do you test?
We provide ADHD evaluations for individuals aged 10 and older.
Do I need to be in-person for the test?
No, everything is done virtually using secure, HIPAA-compliant tools. The at-home testing process is safe, secure, user-friendly, and efficient.
How do I get treated for ADHD?
Treatment is tailored and typically includes:
- Medication – often stimulants that enhance dopamine and norepinephrine activity
- Behavioral strategies and psychoeducation – which may be recommended or coordinated with therapists for non-medication approaches
Do you also do medication management?
Yes! Our providers can prescribe appropriate medications following the evaluation and offer ongoing management, adjusting doses, monitoring side effects, and supporting your progress.
What's the difference between neuropsychological and ADHD testing?
Psychological ADHD testing focuses specifically on symptoms of ADHD, such as attention, impulsivity, executive functioning, memory, learning, processing speed, and emotional functioning. It is designed to answer the question, “Do I have ADHD?” and is usually shorter and more targeted, helping guide treatment and accommodations.
Psychological ADHD testing focuses specifically on symptoms of ADHD, such as attention, impulsivity, executive functioning, memory, learning, processing speed, and emotional functioning. It is designed to answer the question, “Do I have ADHD?” and is usually shorter and more targeted, helping guide treatment and accommodations.
A neuropsychological evaluation is more comprehensive and looks at overall brain functioning, including attention, memory, learning, processing speed, and emotional functioning. It can assess for ADHD, learning disorders, autism, mood disorders, brain injury, or cognitive changes, and is designed to answer, “What is going on with my brain overall?”
How much does it cost?
We bill in-network with most insurance (commercial and certain public plans) for ADHD testing and follow-up visits. Actual costs vary based on your specific insurance plan.
Does ADHD Testing Diagnose Autism or Learning Disorders?
The testing is specifically focused on assessing and diagnosing ADHD. Diagnosing ASD requires different tools, and at this time, we are not conducting ASD evaluations.
