Diagnostic Evaluations for ADHD and Autism
Have you ever wondered if you or a family member has ADHD or Autism? This can be difficult to hold if you have a lot of questions and not as many answers. It can also create a sense of overwhelm in not knowing where to turn and how to get the help you need when you don’t know what you need. At Shine Therapy and Coaching, we have some options to help you explore this. We offer both neurodivergence screening as well as comprehensive assessments to provide insight, assessment, and diagnosis. This can be extremely helpful in navigating the next steps for you and or your loved one. We provide ADHD and Autism assessments for individuals and families seeking greater clarity around neurodivergence. Pursuing an evaluation can bring up a mix of emotions and sometimes anxiety. The goal is to offer a supportive, respectful space where you feel heard, and to provide clear insights that help guide your next steps with confidence.
Neurodivergence Screening:
This is a 90-minute session focused on identifying potential traits of ADHD and/or Autism. During our time together, you will be asked questions about current challenges, past experiences, and daily functioning. I’ll then compare that information to standard diagnostic criteria and provide a brief written summary. This screening does not provide a formal diagnosis, but it’s a helpful first step if you’re wondering whether a full evaluation might be appropriate.
Comprehensive Clinical Assessment (CCA):
For those seeking a formal diagnosis and a deeper understanding, I offer a more in-depth evaluation process. This assessment includes a 3-hour clinical interview and a 30-minute follow-up session. This allows us to explore not only ADHD and Autism traits but also related mental health concerns and any overlapping symptoms. You’ll receive a thorough written report within 2 to 4 weeks, along with personalized recommendations that can support school accommodations, treatment planning, or everyday life.
