ADHD Diagnostic Evaluations
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is characterized by inattentiveness, distractibility, hyperactivity,
and impulsiveness. ADHD makes it difficult for children to manage their behavior, pay attention, regulate their mood, stay organized, concentrate
on tasks at school, follow directions, and sit still.
While there is no specific test for ADHD, making a diagnosis will often include the following:
- The gathering of information, such as current medical issues, personal and family medical history, and school records
- Interviews or questionnaires for family members, your child’s teachers, and other people who know your child well
- ADHD rating scales that help collect and evaluate information about your child
- Behavioral criteria described in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of the American Medical Association
Our consulting psychologists are experienced in providing ADHD Diagnostic Evaluations. An accurate diagnostic
evaluation is essential for a comprehensive understanding of your child’s abilities and challenges, and enables us to develop
the best treatment plan.
