The condition

What is ADHD?

Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects focus, attention, impulse control, and executive functioning. It presents differently in children and adults, and even varies from person to person.

If these challenges are interfering with your daily life or your child’s success at school, an evaluation can be a powerful first step.

Common signs include
Difficulty staying focused or following through on tasks
Forgetfulness and disorganization
Impulsivity or restlessness
Struggles with time management or emotional regulation
Our ADHD testing process

A two-session approach — efficient and comprehensive.

We know that navigating assessments can feel overwhelming, especially when clinical terms are involved. That’s why our two-session approach is designed to be both efficient and comprehensive, ensuring you — or your child — receive thoughtful evaluation without unnecessary complexity.

Step 01

Session One: clinical interview & TOVA

Estimated time: 120–180 minutes

We start with a diagnostic clinical interview to learn about developmental, emotional, cognitive, medical, and relational history. This helps us get a holistic picture of what’s going on.

Right after the interview, we administer the TOVA (Test of Variables of Attention), a computerized tool that gauges sustained attention and response control.

For children and adolescents: while the child completes the TOVA, parents fill out the SDQ (Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire) and the CATS (Child and Adolescent Trauma Screen).

Step 02

Online assessments at home

Completed before Session Two

Between sessions, we send select assessments via email for clients to complete at home. The assessments vary depending on client age.

Adults

Brown EF/A Scales (executive function) — 10–15 minutes
MMPI-3 (personality assessment) — 25–50 minutes

Children & adolescents

Conners 4 (ADHD-related behaviours) — full 12–15 minutes, short 5–7 minutes, ADHD Index 1–1.5 minutes

Additional testing, when needed

If broader concerns need to be explored, such as learning or developmental issues, additional assessments may be offered: WIAT-4 (academic achievement), WISC-V (cognitive, children), WAIS-IV (cognitive, adults). These are provided separately when needed.

Step 03

Session Two: feedback & recommendations

Estimated time: 60–120 minutes

In the second session, we meet to go over the results. Clients receive:

A clear explanation of the findings and whether ADHD is present
Individualized recommendations for next steps, such as therapy strategies, school or workplace accommodations, or other helpful resources
A full written report summarizing results and recommendations

Note: for children 12 and under, a parent or guardian must remain on-site during all sessions. Parents are welcome in the session.
