Professional Psychological Evaluations for ADHD, Autism & Learning Disabilities

Explore attention, focus, executive functioning, and behavioral regulation. Our ADHD testing helps clarify whether difficulties with concentration, organization, or impulsivity may be signs of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder.

Assess communication, social interaction, routines, and sensory experiences. These evaluations identify traits of autism and help determine whether an autism diagnosis may explain the patterns you or your child are experiencing.

Examine academic skills in reading, writing, and math to determine if a learning difference is present. These assessments help identify conditions like dyslexia, dysgraphia, or dyscalculia that may be affecting school performance.

Used in more complex cases, these evaluations assess a wide range of emotional, behavioral, and cognitive symptoms to clarify co-occurring or overlapping mental health concerns and guide treatment planning.

The initial clinical interview is a safe, compassionate conversation where we get to know you, your experiences, concerns, and goals. It’s not a test; it’s a space to be heard. We’ll ask questions about your personal history, emotional and mental health, school or work experiences, and anything else relevant to your evaluation. Think of it as the first step in understanding your mind and getting the right support.

It depends on the type of evaluation you need:

• ADHD testing usually takes about 2 hours.
• Comprehensive evaluations—such as those for autism, learning differences, or emotional concerns—can take between 4 to 6 hours or more.

ADHD evaluations often include attention and executive functioning tasks, behavioral checklists, interviews, and standardized tests. We may also ask parents, teachers, or partners to complete questionnaires to get a complete picture of how symptoms manifest across environments.

School evaluations tend to focus on educational eligibility and classroom accommodations. In private practice, we go deeper. Our evaluations provide clinical diagnoses (like ADHD, autism, anxiety, etc.), explain how your brain works, and offer personalized, actionable strategies for growth at school, at work, and in life.

We assess key areas such as communication, social interaction, sensory processing, repetitive behaviors, cognitive functioning, and emotional regulation. By combining gold-standard assessment tools with in-depth clinical observation and a careful review of your history, we deliver accurate, insightful results that reflect how you uniquely experience and navigate the world.

Take a deep breath. You don’t need to “perform” or have everything figured out. It’s okay to feel nervous or uncertain. If you feel anxious, write down your thoughts or questions beforehand. Remember, this process is here to help you understand yourself, not to judge you.

Bring any past evaluations, school reports, or relevant medical records. If someone referred you, you can bring their referral note. If you’re the parent of a child being evaluated, you may want to provide teacher feedback or report cards.

Comfort is key. Wear something that helps you feel at ease, whether jeans, a hoodie, or something more formal—it’s your decision.

Yes! Ask about anything you’re curious or concerned about. This is your journey, and we welcome your voice in the process.

Through thoughtful, compassionate questions and collaboration. You and your psychologist are a team that works together to uncover how your behaviors, thoughts, and emotions affect your life.
