ADHD Diagnosis in Weber County
Getting an accurate ADHD diagnosis is the first step toward effective treatment. At CPS, our licensed psychologists use validated diagnostic criteria from the DSM-5-TR (the standard diagnostic tool used by mental health professionals in the United States to classify mental health conditions) combined with comprehensive testing to ensure an accurate diagnosis. This page is for parents seeking an ADHD evaluation for their child, or adults who suspect they may have undiagnosed ADHD.
An ADHD diagnosis from CPS is more than a label — it's a roadmap. Our evaluation identifies your specific ADHD presentation, rules out conditions that mimic ADHD, and uncovers co-occurring issues that may need attention. For patients who need structured support beyond weekly therapy, we offer an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP — a structured treatment program involving several hours of therapy per week).
Whether you're a parent concerned about your child's performance or an adult who suspects undiagnosed ADHD, our team provides the thorough, evidence-based evaluation you deserve.
