Do I Have ADHD?

Get the Answers You Deserve

You’ve always wondered. Maybe you’ve felt different your whole life—like you weren’t quite keeping up the way others seemed to. Maybe your child was recently diagnosed, and now you’re seeing yourself in their struggles. Or maybe life just feels harder than it should, and you’re exhausted from trying to hold it all together.

If any of this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. And more importantly—you deserve real answers.

Comprehensive ADHD Testing for Adults

This isn’t just a quick questionnaire or a five-minute conversation. This is a thorough, neuro-affirming evaluation designed to give you real clarity.

Your Path to Clarity

✔️ Clinical Evaluation – A detailed, one-on-one assessment to understand your history, challenges, and strengths.
✔️ Validated ADHD Rating Scales & Screeners – Evidence-based tools to assess ADHD symptoms and how they show up in your life.
✔️ Personalized Feedback & Next Steps – A clear, understandable explanation of your results, with recommendations tailored to you.

This is for You if…

✔️ You’ve always felt like you struggle more than others with focus, organization, or motivation.
✔️ You’re constantly overwhelmed by the demands of adulthood—bills, deadlines, responsibilities.
✔️ You’ve mastered the art of “holding it together” on the outside but feel exhausted on the inside.
✔️ You’ve wondered if ADHD could explain why things have always felt a little harder for you.

Why This Matters

ADHD isn’t just about being “distracted” or “forgetful.” It affects how you think, how you work, how you connect with others—and most importantly, how you feel about yourself.

Understanding your brain can be the first step toward self-acceptance, finding the right support, and making life work for you instead of constantly feeling like you’re falling behind.

The Difference an

Evaluation Made

  • "I finally understand why certain things have always been harder for me—and it’s not because I wasn’t trying hard enough."

  • "I feel more in control of my life, my emotions, and my relationships."

  • "I used to think I was just lazy or unmotivated. Now, I realize I was struggling with ADHD, and I have real strategies that actually help."

  • "I wish I had done this sooner. I spent so many years feeling like I was failing at things that were just never designed for my brain."

 FAQs

  • Assessments typically last between 2.5 to 5 hours, depending on the areas being evaluated. The first hour focuses on a discussion about your symptoms and how they impact your daily life. The remainder of the appointment includes completing questionnaires and engaging in various assessment activities.

  • Your final appointment, often referred to as the Results Session or Feedback Appointment, typically takes place two weeks after your assessment. During this session, Kristin will review your results, discuss insights from the evaluation, and provide personalized recommendations. You will also receive a detailed report outlining the findings.

    • Get plenty of rest. A good night’s sleep will help you feel your best during testing.

    • Eat a nourishing meal beforehand. Opt for balanced, protein-rich foods instead of sugary or high-carb options, which can lead to fatigue.

    • Take medications as prescribed, except for stimulant or ADHD-specific medications. If you are currently taking ADHD medication, consult your prescribing physician before your evaluation. In most cases, it’s recommended to skip your dose the morning of testing, but always follow your doctor’s guidance.

    • Bring healthy snacks and drinks. While eating is not allowed during testing, you may bring non-caffeinated beverages and snacks for breaks. Try to avoid sugary options.

    • Arrive early. Running late can increase anxiety and impact performance. Plan to arrive with enough time to settle in.

    • If you are feeling unwell, please reschedule. Contact our office as soon as possible to make arrangements, keeping in mind the late cancellation policy outlined in your consent forms.

  • Feeling a bit anxious before your appointment is completely normal. Kristin will do her best to create a comfortable and supportive environment throughout the process. She will regularly check in to see if you’d like to take a break, stretch, use the restroom, or have a snack.

  • Yes! If you would like ongoing support after your assessment, I offer therapy for clients who may benefit from continued care. We can discuss your needs and determine the best approach moving forward.

  • Yes, I offer telehealth sessions for clients who prefer virtual appointments.

  • I do not accept insurance; however, I can provide a superbill that you can submit to your insurance company for possible reimbursement if you have out-of-network benefits. I recommend checking with your insurance provider to understand your coverage and reimbursement options.

  • The total cost for the evaluation is $800, which includes:
    ✔️ A 2–3 hour intake appointment that includes clinical interview and initial testing
    ✔️ Scoring and interpretation of all assessment tools
    ✔️ A 1-hour follow-up session to review your results and provide clear, individualized recommendations
    ✔️ A comprehensive written report you can use for school/workplace accommodations, treatment planning, or personal insight
