Understand Your Brain, Validate Your Experience, and Get the Support You Deserve

Many adults with ADHD go undiagnosed for years—sometimes decades—because they’ve learned to mask their struggles or internalize their challenges as personal failures. If you’ve spent your life feeling “lazy,” “unmotivated,” or like you can’t quite keep up despite your best efforts, you’re not alone. ADHD doesn’t always look like hyperactivity—it can show up as executive dysfunction, emotional dysregulation, rejection sensitivity, and burnout.

I offer neuroaffirming ADHD assessments tailored for adults who suspect they may have ADHD or want a deeper understanding of how their brain works. It’s about giving you clarity, validation, and tools to thrive.

Is This Assessment Right for You?

You may benefit from an ADHD assessment if you:
✔️ Struggle with time management, organization, or motivation despite best efforts.
✔️ Experience brain fog, memory lapses, or difficulty following through on tasks.
✔️ Feel overwhelmed by sensory input, emotions, or social interactions.
✔️ Have a history of perfectionism, people-pleasing, or internalized shame.
✔️ Suspect autism, PDA, or another form of neurodivergence alongside ADHD.
✔️ Have been told you "can’t have ADHD" because you did well in school or were not hyperactive.

What Makes My ADHD Assessments Different?

✅ Neuroaffirming & Strength-Based

This is not a one-size-fits-all approach. I recognize that ADHD presents differently in every person, especially in autistic individuals, AFAB people, and those with complex trauma. My assessments are designed to reflect the full spectrum of ADHD experiences.

✅ Tailored for Late-Diagnosed & Masked ADHDers

Many adults seeking ADHD assessments have spent years masking their struggles. My approach considers burnout, sensory sensitivities, emotional regulation, and demand avoidance rather than relying on outdated stereotypes of ADHD.

✅ Comprehensive & Trauma-Informed

I go beyond a simple checklist. My process includes:

  • Clinical interview to explore your experiences, strengths, and challenges.

  • Validated ADHD rating scales designed for neurodivergent adults.

  • Exploration of executive functioning, emotional regulation, and sensory needs.

  • Consideration of differential diagnoses, including autism, PTSD, and anxiety.

✅ Accommodations & Advocacy Support

If you need workplace, academic, or daily life accommodations, I provide personalized recommendations to help you advocate for your needs. You’ll also get workbooks, resources, and guidance to help you navigate life with ADHD.

FAQ

  • What is ADHD?

    Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects focus, organization, emotional regulation, and impulse control. While often associated with children, ADHD persists into adulthood, significantly impacting work, relationships, and daily life. Many adults struggle for years without a diagnosis, attributing their challenges to personality traits or external stressors.

  • Is this a psychological evaluation?

    No. As an LPCA, I provide assessments consisting of a diagnostic interview, collateral information, and screeners to provide a DSM diagnosis.

    Psychological evaluations are required in some cases (by some employers, sometimes to qualify for disability, by some insurance companies for ADHD meds, and at the discretion of your prescriber for medication management.) If this is the case for you, I will refer you out to someone who can complete a full psychological evaluation.

  • Will you prescribe medication?

    No, as an LPCA, I do not prescribe medication. However, I will provide you with a referral for medication management, as well as resources, if needed.

  • Do you take insurance?

    I only accept self-pay for assessments at this time.
