Evaluations for Adults

Diagnostic ADHD Evaluation for Adults

This evaluation is for adults only (ages 22 and up). It measures whether the person has Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (formerly known as Attention Deficit Disorder or ADD). More detailed information about Diagnostic ADHD Evaluations here.

Differential Diagnosis Evaluation for Adults

This evaluation is for adults only (ages 22 and up), and focuses on a specific question that a client or their doctor has. For example, a psychiatrist may request a Differential Diagnosis Evaluation to determine whether a person’s symptoms are due to ADHD or Bipolar Disorder, or a client may want to understand more about their own experience, and whether their symptoms are due to obsessive-compulsive disorder or generalized anxiety disorder. This type of evaluation may be appropriate for a person for whom there are no concerns about learning or cognitive processing, but for whom there are emotional diagnoses or mental health concerns.

Autism Evaluation for Adults

This evaluation is for adults only (ages 22 and up). (For children, a Comprehensive Evaluation is necessary to determine whether an autism evaluation is needed.) This evaluation measures whether the person has Autism. More detailed information about Adult Autism Evaluations here.
