ADHD Assessment for Women

No, the purpose of the diagnosis confirmation is specifically to diagnose or rule out ADHD. If I believe that you may benefit from further evaluation regarding an additional diagnosis I will provide you with referrals.

An ADHD diagnosis requires ruling out many other diagnoses and a lot of nuance is necessary when considering the diagnosis. If another session is needed, additional assessment tools will be used in order to provide you with the most accurate diagnosis. ADHD often presents a little differently for everyone so it requires a thorough assessment process.

Maybe. The diagnosis confirmation will be an out of network service. I do not bill through insurance. However, reach out to your insurance company to see if they will reimburse you for any out of network costs. I am able to provide superbills that you can download through your client portal and send into insurance for reimbursement.

In order to assess for ADHD, a comprehensive look into your history along with family, health, occupational, psychological and educational history in order to get an accurate picture of the impact of potential ADHD symptoms and to diagnose.

Here are some things that will be apart of the diagnosis confirmation process:

• Examination of your Health, Occupational, Psychological, Educational History

• Explore your symptoms and impact of symptoms in reference to clinical diagnostic criteria

After participating in a thorough assessment of history through various standardized assessments, severity of symptoms will be considered and if you meet the clinical criteria requirements you will be diagnosed with ADHD along with receiving a diagnosis letter that you can provide to a doctor or therapist. Note: A diagnostic confirmation assessment may not result in an ADHD diagnosis.

• 1) Request a diagnosis confirmation consultation and through that phone or video call we will assess if scheduling an ADHD diagnosis confirmation appointment is right for you.

• 2) Pick out a package that works best for you and your needs.

• 3) Schedule the package appointments up front during the consultation.

• 4) Pay the package price up front to hold your appointments.

• 5) Complete the paperwork through your online client portal. There are quite a few documents to complete so give yourself plenty of time.

  **Note: The documents must be completed 72 hours before your appointment in order to properly look over your documents. If the documents are not completed before that time, your appointment will be cancelled and it is up to you to reschedule.

• Attend the number of appointments in your package.

So glad you asked!

I understand that life happens and unplanned things come up. If you need to cancel or reschedule your diagnostic confirmation you must cancel before 48 hours of your appointment. All other following appointments require a 24 hour notice in order to not be charged the full appointment fee.

If you need to cancel, it is up to you to reschedule your appointment(s). You have 30 days to reschedule your cancelled appointment(s) within your package. If you schedule after the 30 days, the full fee for the package will again be required.

I specialize in diagnosing adult women (18+). It is common for women to be undiagnosed with ADHD due to the fact that many of their symptoms often aren’t the stereotypical ones that we often think of.

I also do assessments for adults but you must be 18 or older.
