Assessments for Attention-Deficit / Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
Undergoing a psychoeducational assessment can allow individuals to make sense of the symptoms they have experienced, and help confirm and formally identity a condition that they have personally already been aware of. The Psychiatrist and Nurse Therapist at Envision Mind Care has the training to help you gain a clear understanding of your symptoms, determine whether you have ADHD, and provide treatment strategies to improve quality of life.
ADHD Assessments for Adolescent and Teens 16-and over
Typically, for adolescent ADHD cases, there will be early signs, such as taking forever to complete a task, or they may experience significant distraction and/or hyperactivity in a school or home settings. Additionally, Envision Mind Care can provide reassessments for those with prior ADHD diagnosis.
ADHD Assessments for Adults Experiencing Difficulty in their Relationships, School and Workplaces
Prior to making an ADHD diagnosis, we will rule out any other conditions that may cause similar difficulties such as anxiety. Envision Mind Care will perform a very thorough assessment that identifies strengths and weaknesses along with other factors that may contribute to their problems. We perform a thorough clinical interview along with standardized testing, followed by a feedback session.
We can make appropriate recommendations for treatment - medications, talking therapies, as well as school and workplace accommodations. We follow best practice Canadian guidelines for ADHD assessments.
Please be aware that any form completions for school and work place accommodations will be charged as Alberta Health does not cover this service.
