Do you suspect that your child or teen has Attention-Deficit / Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)?

​

Are they always on the go, unable to concentrate, or constantly zoning out?

​

ADHD assessments are helpful when there are concerns about impulsive behaviour, hyperactive behaviour, or inattentive behaviour beyond what we would expect for a child/teen's age. Often, teachers and coaches bring concerns to parents' attention first. ADHD symptoms get in the way at home, at school, and other places.

​

A good diagnostic ADHD assessment involves carefully determining whether symptoms are truly due to the presence of ADHD, or due to other factors like a learning disability or anxiety. Symptoms must be present across multiple settings (e.g., not just at home or just at school, but both). Because of this, it is recommended that a comprehensive ADHD assessment includes an updated psychoeducational assessment to ascertain that no learning difficulties are present.

​

A comprehensive ADHD assessment includes:

​

• in-depth interview with parents/caregivers to evaluate ADHD symptoms and overall mental health

• In-depth questionnaires and interview as needed with a teacher who knows the child/youth well

• review of report cards / school adaptations

• self-report questionnaires filled out by the child/teen/youth depending on their age

• psychoeducational and cognitive testing to examine their learning challenges and strengths, cognitive abilities, memory, language abilities, and reading/writing/math skills*

​

* If child/teen/youth has had a psychoeducational assessment within the past 2 years, then an updated one is not necessary.

​

ADHD assessments are available for children and youth aged 6 - 16 years old. 

​

Self-referrals are accepted. While physician's referrals are not required, your insurance provider may require you to have a physician's referral for coverage.
