ADHD Evaluation in Weber County
An ADHD evaluation at CPS goes beyond a simple questionnaire. Our psychologists conduct a comprehensive assessment that includes cognitive testing, behavioral rating scales, clinical interviews, and a review of developmental and academic history. This page is for parents seeking an ADHD evaluation for their child, or adults who suspect they may have undiagnosed ADHD.
We evaluate for all three ADHD presentations — predominantly inattentive, predominantly hyperactive-impulsive, and combined type — in children, adolescents, and adults. We also screen for common co-occurring conditions like anxiety, depression, and learning disabilities. For patients needing structured treatment, we offer an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP — a structured treatment program involving several hours of therapy per week).
A thorough ADHD evaluation provides the foundation for effective treatment, whether that includes medication, therapy, behavioral strategies, or academic accommodations.
