Signs an ADHD evaluation could help

ADHD looks different at every age. These are common reasons people reach out.

Children

  • Trouble focusing on schoolwork or following directions
  • Lots of energy, hard time sitting still or waiting a turn
  • Losing things, forgetting assignments
  • Teachers raising concerns about attention or behavior

Teens

  • Grades slipping as schoolwork gets harder
  • Procrastination, missed deadlines, last-minute scrambles
  • Trouble managing time, phones, and routines
  • Feeling restless, frustrated, or "lazy" despite trying hard

Adults

  • Wondering if lifelong struggles might be ADHD
  • Trouble keeping up at work, with bills, or at home
  • Starting lots of projects and finishing few
  • A child was diagnosed and the signs feel familiar

Many adults are identified for the first time in their 30s, 40s, or later. It is never too late to understand how your brain works.

What we look at

A full picture, not a checklist

ADHD shares symptoms with anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and learning disabilities. A good evaluation sorts out what’s what.

Attention and focus

How well you sustain, shift, and direct attention.

Executive function

Planning, organizing, time management, and working memory.

Impulsivity and activity

Restlessness, waiting, and acting before thinking.

Development and history

When things started and how they show up at home, school, and work.

Input from others

Rating scales from parents, teachers, partners, or others who know you well.

What else might be going on

Screening for anxiety, depression, sleep concerns, and learning differences.
