ADHD Assessment Edmonton
Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects focus, executive functioning, emotional regulation, and impulse control. Many individuals struggling with ADHD symptoms may find it difficult to maintain focus, manage time, or complete tasks in different settings like school, work, or home.
Through our Individual Counselling, we often support clients dealing with ADHD alongside other mental health conditions such as anxiety, stress, or learning differences. A professional ADHD assessment provides clarity by identifying patterns, ruling out other conditions, and guiding appropriate treatment.

Common ADHD Symptoms
ADHD symptoms can look different depending on the individual, but they often fall into three main categories:
- Inattention: Difficulty maintaining focus, frequent forgetfulness, losing items, and trouble completing tasks or following instructions.
- Hyperactivity: Restlessness, fidgeting, excessive talking, or feeling constantly “on the go.”
- Impulsivity: Interrupting conversations, acting without thinking, or difficulty waiting turns in social interactions.
These symptoms can affect self-esteem, school performance, work productivity, and relationships. A comprehensive ADHD assessment helps determine whether ADHD or other conditions may be contributing to these challenges.
Our ADHD Assessment Process
A reliable ADHD diagnosis requires a structured and thorough assessment process. Our approach is designed to gather information from multiple sources and provide a clear understanding of your mental health.
Step 1: Initial Interview
We begin with an initial interview to discuss symptoms, medical history, family history, and daily functioning. For children, parents provide detailed background information.
Step 2: Standardized Questionnaires
Evidence-based questionnaires are completed by the individual and, when appropriate, parents, teachers, or partners to evaluate symptoms across different settings.
Step 3: Cognitive and Attention Testing
We assess executive functioning, working memory, processing speed, and attention using standardized tools.
Step 4: Screening for Other Conditions
Step 5: Feedback Session and Report
You’ll receive a detailed report outlining the diagnosis (if applicable), along with helpful information and personalized recommendations for treatment, strategies, and next steps.
