About ADHD
More than a checklist
ADHD is a neurodevelopmental condition involving persistent difficulties with attention, impulsivity, and/or hyperactivity that interfere with school, work, organization, relationships, and daily life.
Symptoms can continue into adulthood, and some people are not formally evaluated until college or later. Because anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and learning differences can look similar, a comprehensive evaluation matters.
Who provides evaluations: Psychological testing is provided by Mason Anglin, PsyD, a Registered Psychological Associate (PSB94029529), under the supervision of Youssef Nakhla, PsyD, a licensed psychologist (PSY 36042), at Cogniscribe Psychology.

What’s included
An individualized evaluation
Clinical interview & history
Symptoms across settings, current impairment, developmental history, and the strategies you already use.
Testing
Validated ADHD measures plus attention, executive functioning, and cognitive or academic testing when appropriate.
Diagnostic integration
Emotional and psychological factors are considered so the conclusion fits the whole picture.
Every evaluation includes a written report and a feedback session. No single computerized attention test or questionnaire is enough to establish or rule out ADHD.
How it works
What to expect from an assessment
Initial discussion of concerns and goals
We begin with a thoughtful conversation to understand the challenges, history, and goals you (or your child) are facing, so the evaluation fits your needs.
The evaluation
Clinical interviews, standardized testing, and careful observation, paced thoughtfully so you are comfortable and the results are accurate.
Feedback session & written report
Every evaluation includes a feedback session, where results are reviewed in clear, straightforward language, and a written report with practical recommendations for next steps.
