ADHD Evaluation & Treatment
Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) can affect focus, organization, impulse control, and daily functioning in adults and young adults. Our providers offer comprehensive ADHD evaluation and individualized treatment to help patients manage symptoms and improve quality of life.
Evaluation Process
- Detailed clinical interview about symptoms, history, and daily impact
- Review of academic, work, and social functioning
- Use of validated ADHD rating scales and screening tools
- Assessment for co-occurring conditions (anxiety, depression, learning differences)
- Discussion of findings and treatment recommendations
Treatment Options
Treatment for ADHD is individualized and may include medication management, behavioral strategies, lifestyle modifications, or a combination. Our providers use ongoing monitoring and measurement-based care to track progress and ensure treatment is effective.
Stimulants are not the only option. For patients who prefer to avoid them, or who have not tolerated them well, non-stimulant medications such as atomoxetine, bupropion, and guanfacine are effective alternatives. We also work on organisational and coaching strategies, and on the sleep and exercise habits that meaningfully change how well any medication works.
ADHD in Adults
Many adults are diagnosed with ADHD for the first time later in life. Symptoms like difficulty concentrating, disorganization, restlessness, and trouble completing tasks may have been present for years without a clear explanation. We provide supportive, non-judgmental evaluation for adults seeking clarity and relief.
ADHD is underdiagnosed in adults, and particularly in women, whose symptoms more often show up as inattention and internal restlessness than as the visible hyperactivity people expect. It also mimics anxiety and depression closely enough that it is regularly treated as one of them for years. A thorough evaluation is what separates them — and ADHD is always present from childhood, so part of that work is tracing the pattern back, even when nobody named it at the time.
