Understanding ADHD
ADHD is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects focus, impulsivity, and activity levels. While it’s often associated with children, ADHD is common in adults and may present differently across the lifespan.
Symptoms of ADHD may include:
Difficulty sustaining attention or following through on tasks
Impulsivity and acting without thinking
Hyperactivity or feeling restless
Trouble organizing, planning, or managing time
Frequent distractions or forgetfulness
ADHD can impact academic, professional, and personal success—but with the right strategies and support, individuals with ADHD can lead fulfilling and productive lives.
How We Help
At Veritas Psychology Partners, we provide a comprehensive approach to ADHD assessment and treatment, focusing on understanding each individual’s unique experiences and needs.
ADHD Therapeutic Assessment
Our ADHD assessments are thorough and tailored to provide accurate, clear diagnoses. The process typically includes:
Initial Consultation: A detailed conversation about your experiences, symptoms, and concerns.
Behavioral Assessments: Evidence-based tools to evaluate attention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity.
Collateral Input: Gathering information from family members, teachers, or others who know you well (if applicable).
Review of Medical History: Exploring factors that may contribute to or mimic ADHD symptoms.
ADHD Treatment Options
Once a diagnosis is made, we collaborate with you to develop a personalized treatment plan that may include:
Behavioral Therapy: Learn strategies to manage symptoms, improve organization, and enhance emotional regulation.
Parent Coaching: For children and teens, parents receive guidance on creating supportive environments and reinforcing positive behaviors.
Skill-Building: Focused sessions on time management, prioritization, and other executive functioning skills.
Collaboration with Providers: If appropriate, we’ll coordinate with your primary care provider or psychiatrist to explore medication options.
ADHD in Adults
ADHD in adults often goes undiagnosed, with symptoms frequently misattributed to stress, anxiety, or other conditions.
Common signs of adult ADHD include:
Struggling to stay organized or meet deadlines
Feeling overwhelmed by daily responsibilities
Difficulty focusing in meetings or on long-term projects
Procrastination or avoidance of challenging tasks
Emotional dysregulation, including frustration or impatience
If these challenges sound familiar, an ADHD assessment can provide clarity and open the door to effective treatment strategies.
ADHD in Children and Teens
We offer services to those 18 and older, and at this time are not evaluating children or teens.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the ADHD assessment process involve?
We use a combination of interviews, behavioral rating scales, and other evidence-based tools to evaluate ADHD symptoms thoroughly.
Can adults be diagnosed with ADHD for the first time?
Absolutely. Many adults with ADHD go undiagnosed in childhood and only seek help when they encounter difficulties in work or relationships.
Is medication required for ADHD treatment?
Medication can be helpful for some individuals, but it’s not the only option. Behavioral therapy, skill-building, and environmental modifications are also highly effective.
