Adult ADHD Assessment
Adult Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder that persists into adulthood. ADHD is often associated with difficulties in attention, impulse control, and hyperactivity. While it is commonly diagnosed in childhood, symptoms can continue into adolescence and adulthood for some individuals. It is important to note that ADHD is a spectrum disorder and individuals may experience varying degrees of impairment. Seeking professional evaluation and guidance from mental health professionals, such as our psychologist, is crucial for accurate diagnosis and effective management.
Here are some key aspects of adult ADHD:
​
Symptoms:
-
Inattention: Adults with ADHD may have trouble sustaining attention in tasks, making careless mistakes, and organizing activities.
-
Hyperactivity-Impulsivity: While hyperactivity tends to decrease with age, some adults may still experience restlessness or impulsivity, such as difficulty waiting their turn, interrupting others, or acting without thinking.
Impact on Daily Life:
-
ADHD can affect various aspects of life, including work, relationships, and overall functioning.
-
Adults with ADHD may struggle with time management, organization, and completing tasks.
Step 1
You must first purchase the assessment at the very affordable rate of $299. You can pay all at once or set up an easy payment plan.
Step 2
Once payment is received you will be emailed multiple forms that must be completed in a timely manner. It is important that you are the one filling out all forms. These forms include:
Consent For Telehealth Psychological Evaluation and Adult ADHD Intake Information.
Step 3
Once the above forms are completed, you will receive two adult ADHD assessments in your email to complete from OPO. These are the ASRS-5 and the ASRS-v-1.1. You will also receive an email from a 3rd party assessment site (MHS Assessments) with two more assessments to complete.
Step 4
After you have completed all required forms and assessments, our psychologist will review everything and interpret findings. A diagnostic report will then be completed and emailed to you. If an ADHD diagnosis is determined, you will receive detailed information about the diagnosis and appropriate treatment recommendations.
Step 5
Take your report to your mental health professional and/or PCP to receive treatment so that you can live your best life. It is that easy!
Disclaimer
Not all assessments will result in an ADHD diagnosis. You may receive a report that rules out ADHD. If this happens, you will still be provided some direction about additional steps if needed.
