ADHD Evaluations in Houston, TX
Comprehensive, Neurodiversity-Affirming ADHD Evaluations
Available in Houston, TX and via secure telehealth
If you are seeking a thoughtful, thorough, and neurodiversity-affirming ADHD evaluation in Houston, TX—or prefer the convenience of a virtual ADHD evaluation—I offer comprehensive assessments designed to understand the whole individual, not just a list of symptoms. I evaluated children, teens, and adults.
What to Expect From the ADHD Evaluation Process
ADHD evaluations are available in person at my Houston office or virtually via secure telehealth. Both formats follow best practices and are tailored to provide an accurate understanding of attention, executive functioning, and self-regulation across settings.
The evaluation is typically completed in one appointment.
For child and adult assessments, this includes:
An in-depth parent interview reviewing developmental history, behavior patterns, and school functioning
Standardized rating scales assessing attention, hyperactivity, impulsivity, and executive functioning
Clinical interview and behavioral observations appropriate for the child’s age and evaluation format
Appointments typically last 2–3 hours and are designed to differentiate ADHD from other developmental, emotional, or learning-related concerns.
Before the Appointment
Families will complete rating forms and questionnaires prior to the evaluation. When appropriate, teacher input will be requested. Families may also submit videos or examples highlighting attention challenges or emotional regulation difficulties, which are particularly helpful for virtual evaluations.
Feedback & Written Report
Following the evaluation, we will schedule a 45-minute feedback session, held in person or virtually. During this session, I will:
Review diagnostic findings
Explain results in clear, accessible language
Share individualized recommendations
Answer questions and discuss next steps
Families can expect a comprehensive written report within two weeks of the feedback session.
Investment
ADHD Evaluation (In-Person): $1,800*
ADHD Evaluation (Virtual): $1,500
*If additional testing is recommended—such as developmental, cognitive, or academic assessment—there is an additional fee of $900, which requires a second testing appointment.

-
A neurodiversity-affirming ADHD evaluation focuses on understanding how an individual’s brain works, not just identifying difficulties. The goal is to recognize strengths, clarify challenges, and provide meaningful, practical support.
A comprehensive evaluation typically includes:
A detailed developmental, educational, and family history
Clinical interviews with the individual and/or caregivers
Standardized rating scales from multiple informants (parent, teacher, partner, or self-report)
Behavioral observations
Cognitive or executive functioning measures when appropriate
The process is collaborative and respectful, with attention to emotional well-being, cultural context, and lived experience. Results are shared in clear, accessible language, along with individualized recommendations for school, work, home, and daily life.
-
Parents often seek an evaluation when they notice ongoing challenges with attention, impulsivity, emotional regulation, or organization that are affecting school, friendships, or family life. An evaluation helps clarify whether these concerns are related to ADHD or another developmental difference.
-
Adults often seek evaluations after lifelong difficulties with focus, time management, organization, emotional regulation, or burnout. Many were missed in childhood, especially women and high-achieving individuals.
-
Yes. ADHD in girls often appears as inattention, internal restlessness, emotional sensitivity, or anxiety rather than hyperactivity. Girls are frequently under-identified and diagnosed later.
-
A diagnosis can offer understanding, access to accommodations, more targeted support, and greater self-compassion.
