If you're unsure as to whether you want to pursue treatment or therapy, a one-time ADHD diagnosis session can give you the answers you need to choose what's right for you.
ADHD often presents much differently in adults versus in children, which is why we developed this test to specifically address the symptoms and needs of adults with potential ADHD.
Every decade, new advancements and research into healthcare yield life-changing benefits for people across the world. In the 21st century, specifically, a newfound understanding of mental health, its effects, and potential methods of managing these conditions has meant a revolution in the diagnosis and treatment of mental health conditions. Instead of simply painting all patients with a broad brush, therapists today can treat each person (and their unique circumstances) as the individual they are.
At ADHDAdvisor.org, we embrace this philosophy wholeheartedly. When you trust us to administer your ADHD test, you gain access to world-class mental health professionals, modern resources and technology, and an on-demand support staff dedicated to helping you every step of the way.

Traditionally, testing for ADHD involved traveling to a healthcare facility or therapist's office, where you would undergo a physical exam, behavioral testing, and fill out one or more questionnaires related to ADHD. With children, this process typically extended to observation at school or in the home to evaluate potential ADHD-related behaviors.
Today, improvements in our understanding of ADHD mean that tests can often be successfully administered online via a digital platform, especially for adults with ADHD. During an online ADHD test, you'll work with your assigned mental health professional to identify signs or symptoms of ADHD, start to establish what presentation of ADHD you may have, and set about planning next steps.
On average, our customers receive a positive or negative diagnosis by the end of their first session. From there, we work with you to design a treatment strategy and plan that best fits your needs.
In our experience, we've found that the best outcomes happen when we take the time to learn more about each individual patient. To make that happen, we offer a complimentary ADHD test for anyone curious about our services and whether they might have ADHD. Once you've completed this short, streamlined assessment, we'll use your answers to identify the best mental health professional for your circumstances.
From there, our scheduling team gets to work finding time for you to meet with a therapist licensed in your state. While this may take a bit more time for patients in some areas, we begin the scheduling process immediately to help ensure the shortest wait time possible. During this first session, you'll go over your assessment results with your therapist, answer more questions about your behaviors or potential symptoms, and participate in a more comprehensive diagnostic process. Typically, you can expect a positive or negative ADHD diagnosis by the end of your first session.
After you've received a diagnosis, you can choose to continue working with your assigned therapist to enact your personalized treatment plan. Depending on your goals and needs, this may include prescription medication, behavioral therapy, or executive function coaching.
According to the most recent studies from the Centers for Disease Control, approximately 9% of all children between the ages of 3 and 17 are diagnosed with ADHD. This means that millions of individuals are diagnosed each year, making ADHD one of the most common mental health conditions in the world.
Despite this, countless people reach adulthood without ever receiving a proper diagnosis, so much so that an estimated 80% of adults with ADHD are unaware that they have the condition. Worse, those same estimates say that only a quarter of diagnosed adults receive proper treatment for their ADHD.
While there are many potential causes for these statistics, including the ongoing stigma around mental health, the good news is that modern ADHD tests are much more accurate and convenient than previous methods. Today, adults can receive testing from the comfort of their own homes and work with world-class mental health professionals to design treatment plans.
An ADHD test and the treatment that follows can have profound effects on your daily life. And while these effects vary depending on your circumstances, there are a few benefits that you can expect to enjoy following your test and diagnosis.

While in-person testing is still a viable option for some people, online ADHD testing offers certain benefits that traditional services struggle to match.
Between the emotional and intellectual investment required to diagnose and treat ADHD, there's no reason to add to a person's stress by requiring them to meet a strict schedule or regularly commute for therapy sessions. By choosing an online ADHD test and treatment service, you allow yourself the added convenience of finding support in the comfort of your own home.
Through no fault of their own, many in-person providers offer limited availability or scheduling options. With an online service like ADHDAdvisor.org, you avoid this limitation by giving yourself access to a much broader network of therapists. That access, combined with the 24/7 support of our customer service team, means you can find session times that fit your schedule rather than working around someone else's.
The process required to diagnose ADHD and find treatment can be intensely personal for some individuals, which is why privacy is a key component of any mental health service. And, while all mental health services should be HIPAA-compliant, choosing an online platform offers added discretion by removing the need for in-person visits at a therapist's office or other healthcare facility.
Better mental health shouldn't come at the expense of impaired financial health, which is why our initial testing session requires only a $20 deposit to schedule. Once you've completed that diagnostic session, we'll charge an additional $130 if you are satisfied with your experience. For those who come away feeling less than confident about their diagnosis session, we offer a complete money-back guarantee.
With so many people going undiagnosed well into adulthood, it's only reasonable that you would want answers as quickly as possible. With our complimentary intake assessment, you can start getting answers right away, and our scheduling team will immediately begin finding you the perfect mental health professional for your needs.
While it's absolutely possible to experience progress and success with traditional methods, there's no reason not to use every tool at our disposal to serve our customers. That's why we integrate modern technology, such as video calling and a centralized messaging hub, to make your experience as convenient as possible.
A one-size-fits-all approach simply doesn't cut it anymore. Instead, we work with each of our patients to develop a custom, personalized treatment plan that takes into consideration every aspect of your circumstances.
Traditional face-to-face sessions can bring about service, treatment, or even invoicing challenges. Such issues can be draining and time-consuming. With online ADHD testing, you can access reliable customer service at your fingertips.
While in-person care has its benefits, an online ADHD test connects you to a much more extensive network of healthcare providers, giving you the freedom to select the right therapist for your needs.
Depending on your situation and the mental health professional with whom you are paired, you may undergo one of several different ADHD tests. Typically, the most common ADHD tests include the following:
The ACDS administers a comprehensive set of yes/no questions to identify and measure an individual's behaviors and potential ADHD symptoms. In order to provide more accurate results, the ACDS requires patients to answer questions about both their childhood and adult life.
Standing in stark contrast to the standard questionnaire format of ADHD tests is the T.O.V.A., which uses interactive, computerized elements to gauge attention span, reaction times, and other factors.
The Conners Rating Scale has been revised and modified countless times since it was first created in 1970, but it is still viewed today as one of the best self-administered ADHD questionnaires available. While it follows the format of many other ADHD tests, the CRS also allows individuals the option to include spouses, friends, or family members to help answer questions.
The Barratt Impulsiveness Scale involves a set of thirty questions divided into six categories to assess various behaviors that may be related to ADHD. Like many ADHD tests, the Barratt Impulsiveness Scale can be self-administered by adults and then interpreted later by a trained mental health professional.
The ASRS is a streamlined questionnaire consisting of eighteen questions about daily behavior and habits. Typically, this test will be administered by a mental health professional, after which they will discuss the results more in-depth with the patient.
Online ADHD testing offers a wealth of benefits compared to standard testing options but may have slight drawbacks for some individuals.
An ADHD test may feel like a high-stakes undertaking, but there are some simple, easy ways to make the most of your experience.
Sometimes, people internalize shame or frustration about behaviors related to ADHD. When this happens, it can be all too easy to qualify or condition your responses instead of answering with complete honesty. Remember that ADHD is nothing to be ashamed of and that answering honestly is the best way to ensure results.
Like most people who seek out an ADHD test, you probably have behaviors or habits in your life that you've recognized as potential symptoms of ADHD. Before you begin your test, consider writing out a list of these behaviors to discuss with your assigned therapist.
When you find a mental health professional that matches your needs and personality, you gain an invaluable partner to help in your pursuit of better mental health. Once you've finished your ADHD test, consider scheduling another session with your dedicated ADHDAdvisor.org therapist to continue treatment.
Once you've received your ADHD diagnosis and begun to learn more about how your behaviors are related to the condition, your assigned therapist can provide resources and tools to continue deepening your understanding.
Treatment for ADHD can be as unique and personalized as the condition itself, which is why our therapists are trained to work with their patients to develop customized, specific treatment plans. Whether it's prescription medications, behavioral therapy, or executive function coaching, we can develop a path forward tailored to your needs.
All too often, adults with undiagnosed ADHD feel alone or unheard due to their symptoms. In these instances, finding a community of people walking a similar path can yield profound benefits for a person's self-confidence and progress.
Chances are, you've experienced years of confusion and frustration surrounding your ADHD-related behaviors. As you navigate the process of obtaining a diagnosis and beginning treatment, remember to stay patient with and kind to yourself.
Even though societal views on ADHD and mental health are becoming more empathetic, some people can't shake off the self-imposed stigma. While undergoing diagnosis and treatment, aim to let go of these negative feelings and commend yourself for taking proactive steps.
A competent mental health expert will make your ADHD journey inviting and reassuring. However, you can enhance the effectiveness of your session by arriving prepared. This includes having a general idea of your concerns and any notes about familial or individual mental health history.
Yes! While some previous practitioners required in-person meetings to test for ADHD, modern therapists can work with you digitally to provide answers.
While several reliable online ADHD tests exist, it's best to find one that also offers follow-up care and treatment guidance. With ADHDAdvisor.org, you can schedule additional sessions with the same therapist who performed your ADHD test.
Although self-administered questionnaires have long been used to assess a person's potential ADHD symptoms, it's important to remember that these are never a replacement for a formal diagnosis. If you choose to self-test, always follow up with a licensed professional to confirm your suspicions.
Most online ADHD diagnoses cost between $100 and $200.
Although ADHDAdvisor.org does not currently accept insurance, patients may be able to submit receipts to their healthcare provider for reimbursement.
Typically, patients receive test results by the end of their first session with an assigned therapist.
After you've completed your ADHD test and received your results, we suggest scheduling additional sessions to explore treatment and therapy options.
Our ADHD intake assessment uses modern research and technology to identify symptoms and help inform your eventual diagnosis.
All of ADHDAdvisor.org's services are 100% HIPAA compliant and use advanced encryption technologies to safeguard your data.
Currently, our network of mental health professionals provides treatment for PTSD, depression, executive function issues, anxiety disorders, and other mental health conditions.
All ADHDAdvisor.org physicians use Zoom to video call patients.
Yes! Even if your mental health struggles do not fall neatly into a single category, our team can help design a treatment plan to match.
Our physicians can prescribe medications to treat ADHD, anxiety, depression, and PTSD, including SSRIs, SNRIs, and non-stimulant ADHD medication such as Strattera (Atomoxetine).
Although ADHDAdvisor.org cannot prescribe certain controlled medications, such as stimulants or benzodiazepines, we can connect you with an in-person healthcare provider to help you obtain the right medication for your situation.
The frequency of your sessions depends entirely on your case and preferences, though most physicians prefer to meet at least once every two weeks in order to ensure effective treatment.
