Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
An estimated 7 million children have been diagnosed with some form of ADHD in the United States. ADHD is more than forgetfulness and hyperactivity; it is a form of neurodiversity and evaluation of this diagnosis takes careful measurements. ADHD diagnostic testing is conducted over multiple appointments. Individually administered assessments, parent and teacher rating forms, and a comprehensive clinical interview are part of the evaluation process. Testing will reveal not only a diagnosis, but will also generate specific recommendations to help your child thrive in school and beyond.
Intellectual Disability
Intellectual disability is difficult to distinguish from other developmental disabilities, thus psychological testing is usually needed for a diagnosis. Intellectual testing is completed, as well as developmental screenings, a clinical interview, and parent and teacher rating forms. Testing will lead to diagnostic clarity, allowing for specific treatment recommendations to be made.
