as a puzzle.

We gather various pieces of information and use each piece to form a complete picture of what’s going on to help you better understand how you or your child’s strengths, weaknesses, personality characteristics, environmental factors, and relationships are impacting day-to-day life.

Our evaluations are comprehensive and assess for other mental health conditions, such as anxiety, depression, trauma, learning disorders, or autism, which may be contributing to your challenges as well.

Therefore, our evaluations do not just assess for ADHD. We aim to prevent misdiagnosis so we can provide the appropriate recommendations for your needs.

Many times, people suffer from more than one mental health condition, so the evaluation will also help you understand how different challenges may interact with each other.

What Should I Expect During an Evaluation at Forest Psychological Clinic?

Let’s think of the evaluation as a puzzle. We need to gather multiple pieces of information to have a complete picture of you or your child at the end of the process. There are various steps in the process, some happening “behind the scenes.”

  • 4-6 hour office-based testing appointment. Most appointments include multiple assessment measures such as cognitive, learning, executive functioning, and social-emotional. We conduct clinical interviews during this appointment

  • Parents, teachers, and/or trusted loved ones complete measures to provide additional information

  • Follow-up interviews and measures as needed

  • Record review and consultation with other professionals (e.g., therapists)

  • Scoring and interpretation of results and preparation of the report

  • Feedback session, which is usually done the same day, to review the results, diagnoses, and recommendations

  • Follow up with family and providers as needed

At the end of the evaluation, we aim to put the pieces together so you better understand yourself or your child. The pieces come together, and things start to make sense. You aren’t grasping for straws anymore because you know how certain behaviors link together and why they happen. You not only know why but also now have a map to help navigate your journey moving forward.

The recommendation section of the report will connect you with medical and therapeutic services, provide strategies to use at home, identify ways to obtain accommodations at work or school, resources to learn more about autism or other diagnoses, and tools that may be useful in your daily life.

Questions and Answers

Find answers to the most commonly asked questions about our services.

How do I get evaluated for ADHD?

To receive an ADHD evaluation, you need to consult a mental health professional or a specialist, such as a psychologist or psychiatrist. The process typically involves questionnaires, interviews, and cognitive testing to ensure an accurate diagnosis of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. Many mental health practitioners also screen for other mental health disorders, such as anxiety or autism spectrum disorder, to provide a comprehensive assessment.

What does a full ADHD assessment look like?

A full ADHD evaluation includes clinical interviews, behavioral observations, and standardized tests to assess attention, impulse control, and executive function. A mental health professional will also review medical history, may recommend medication management options, and recommend behavioral therapy if needed. This thorough process ensures an accurate diagnosis, helping to develop an individualized plan for treating ADHD and managing other mental health disorders if present.

How much does an ADHD evaluation cost?

The cost of an ADHD evaluation varies, typically ranging from $2500 to $3500, depending on the provider and location. Some insurance plans cover assessments, including medication management and behavioral therapy, especially if diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder or related mental health disorders. If financial concerns arise, checking with mental health practitioners or community programs for reduced-cost options can be helpful.
