Child ADHD Testing

Understanding your child’s attention, focus, and learning patterns can make a significant difference in their success at school and at home.

Children with ADHD may have difficulty sustaining attention, following through on tasks, staying organized, or managing their energy. These challenges can impact academic performance, confidence, and daily functioning, even when a child is capable and trying hard.

A comprehensive ADHD evaluation provides clear answers about what is going on and how to support your child moving forward.

When to Consider ADHD Testing

You may want to consider an evaluation if your child is:

  • Struggling to focus or complete schoolwork
  • Frequently forgetting instructions or losing track of tasks
  • Requiring constant reminders to stay organized
  • Becoming easily overwhelmed or giving up on assignments
  • Showing high levels of energy that lead to behavioral concerns
  • Having difficulty winding down or maintaining routines

What ADHD Testing Provides

An ADHD evaluation helps identify how your child’s attention, executive functioning, and learning processes are impacting their performance.

Through comprehensive assessment, we evaluate:

  • Attention and concentration
  • Executive functioning and organization
  • Memory and processing
  • Academic performance
  • Contributing emotional or behavioral factors

You will receive a detailed report with clear diagnoses and practical recommendations that can be used at home and in school.

Our Approach

Our ADHD evaluations are part of a comprehensive assessment process designed to provide a complete understanding of your child’s functioning.

Each evaluation includes a clinical interview, in-depth testing, and a structured review process to ensure accurate diagnoses and meaningful recommendations.

Our goal is not only to determine whether ADHD is present, but to help you understand how your child learns and what strategies will support long-term success.

Guidance for School and Home

Following the evaluation, we help families:

  • Understand their child’s strengths and areas of need
  • Develop strategies for organization, attention, and follow-through
  • Navigate school-based supports, including 504 Plans and IEPs
  • Advocate for appropriate accommodations

ADHD Testing for Adults

Our primary focus for ADHD evaluations is school-aged children. In select cases, we may provide evaluations for college students who require documentation for academic accommodations.

We do not provide medication management or evaluations solely for the purpose of obtaining medication. Adults seeking medication management should consult with a physician or psychiatrist.

Getting Started

If you are concerned about your child’s attention, focus, or school performance, the first step is a brief consultation to determine whether testing is appropriate.

We provide ADHD evaluations for families in St. Petersburg and throughout the Tampa Bay area.
