Understanding whether you or your child may have ADHD is an important step toward getting the right support. An ADHD assessment looks at attention, focus, behaviour, and how these impact daily life at school, work, or home.
Take the first step today and learn how ADHD testing can bring clarity and confidence.
Our assessments are tailored for both children and adults, combining clinical interviews, rating scales, and history from different settings. This thorough approach ensures an accurate diagnosis and a clear path forward — whether that means strategies, support, or treatment options.
