If you think you or your child has ADD/ADHD, the psychologists at the ApaCenter can help. ADD/ADHD is a serious condition that affects approximately 5% of the population. It is characterized by problems with inattention and/or hyperactivity/impulsivity that can negatively impact school, work, and social relationships.
At the ApaCenter, our Licensed Psychologists have extensive expertise in helping children, adolescents, and adults with ADD/ADHD. Our psychological assessments can determine whether you or your child has ADD/ADHD. We can distinguish ADD/ADHD from the many other conditions that can mimic it, such as depression, anxiety, slow processing speed, dyslexia, and working memory deficits. An accurate diagnosis is essential for effective intervention.
Our assessments will have recommendations specific to you or your child’s unique pattern of strengths and weaknesses.
It is important to be aware that children and college students who have ADD/ADHD are likely eligible for educational services and accommodations through special education or Section 504. Gaining access to such services and accommodations can be critical to meeting students' academic needs and preserving self-esteem.
Our psychological assessments can also help you or your child:
- Improve grades
- Gain access to educational services and accommodations (e.g., extended time on tests) in grades K-12 as well as college
- Learn more effectively
If you or your child has been diagnosed with ADD/ADHD (or if you have already been diagnosed as having ADD/ADHD), our psychologists can provide therapy or consultation to:
- Effectively manage the symptoms of ADD/ADHD such as inattention and impulsivity
- Improve academic performance and work productivity
- Enhance social relationships
- Become more organized
- Achieve a greater sense of well-being and self-confidence
