Psychological Testing
We accommodate testing of children, adolescents, young adults and mature adults for ADHD.
This CAN be covered by insurance in many situations.
We use the Brown Attention-Deficit Disorder Scales® developed by Dr. Thomas E. Brown, Ph.D. in tandem with a clinical interview process. These scales are superior in the role of executive cognitive functioning assessment during multiple development stages which is less apparent with other formats. It is mistakenly communicated that high functioning individuals cannot struggle with ADHD. We hope to address this stigma with empirically-supported measures.
Clusters of executive functions assessed include:
- Organizing, Prioritizing and Activating to Work
- Focusing, Sustaining and Shifting Attention to Tasks
- Regulating Alertness, Sustaining Effort and Processing Speed
- Managing Frustration and Modulating Emotions
- Utilizing Working Memory and Accessing Recall
- Monitoring and Self-Regulating Action (Children’s edition only)
