ADHD & Executive Functioning
ADHD and Executive Functioning Evaluations
ADHD and executive functioning evaluations are designed to provide diagnostic clarity when there are questions about attention, impulsivity, hyperactivity, organization, working memory, emotional regulation, task completion, academic functioning, or daily life demands.
At Center for Balanced Living, ADHD evaluations are completed with clinical care and attention to the whole person. The goal is not simply to determine whether someone meets criteria for ADHD, but to understand how attention, executive functioning, learning, emotional regulation, anxiety, sleep, trauma, and environmental demands may be interacting.

What to Expect
The Evaluation Process
Most families begin with a comprehensive screening, which is as thorough as we can be within your insurance benefit. When a question calls for more, a full comprehensive evaluation is available, though insurance does not cover it. From intake to feedback, the process usually takes about four to six weeks.

Every Tuesday at 6 p.m. on Zoom, Dr. Serravalle walks through the process and answers questions. Email Kimmy to register.
