Start with knowing
your brain.
You cannot build effective strategies around a brain you don't understand. Our comprehensive, clinician-led ADHD evaluation gives you real answers — not a quick checkbox, but objective, data-grounded clarity about how your mind actually works.
"It is not only about discovering what your cognitive deficits are, but why they show up in your life, and exactly what to do about them."
How We Evaluate Your Brain
Four evidence-based methods, used together to give you a complete picture.
01
Clinical Interview
A thorough conversation about your history, symptoms, and how ADHD is showing up in your daily life - career, relationships, health, and home.
02
Evidence-Based Questionnaires
Standardized, validated self-report screening tools that capture your subjective experience across multiple domains of functioning.
03
Neurocognitive Testing
A non-invasive, computerized nervous system evaluation that measures how your brain actually performs producing objective, clinical-grade data across 13 cognitive domains.
04
Blood Work
Lab work to identify any biological contributors to your attention, memory, or concentration challenges because the answer isn't always purely neurological.

Your Path to Clarity
Four clear steps - from where you are now to a diagnosis, a treatment plan, and a brain map that is yours to keep.
Step 1
Complete Your Intake & Questionnaires
Once your appointment is secured, you'll receive access to the patient portal to complete your intake forms and self-report screening questionnaires. This step must be completed 24–48 hours before your testing date.
~1 HOUR DONE ON YOUR OWN TIME
Step 2
Neurocognitive Testing & Clinical Interview
Your computerized evaluation and clinical interview take place in a single virtual session with Dr. Joanne. Set aside two hours of uninterrupted time in a quiet environment. This is where your data gets collected.
~2 HOURS VIRTUAL WITH DR. JOANNE
Step 3
Receive Your Personalized Report & Treatment Plan
Your full written report is uploaded to your patient portal. We review the results together, discuss what your profile means, and if a diagnosis is confirmed, build a recommended treatment regimen tailored to your specific neurocognitive pattern.
Step 4
Begin Treatment & Reevaluate
After starting your recommended treatment regimen, we retest your neurocognition to measure how you're responding and make any needed adjustments. Your brain data isn't a one-time snapshot — it's an ongoing clinical tool.

This service is for adults (21+) and is not intended for those seeking academic accommodations. Testing is designed to determine whether you meet criteria for an ADHD diagnosis and whether you may benefit from psychopharmacologic or psychotherapeutic interventions.
If you are seeking ADHD documentation for academic accommodations (college, national standardized exams, or professional licensure), a full neuropsychological evaluation by a licensed psychologist is required. The average cost for that evaluation ranges from $2,500–$5,000. We are happy to refer you to a trusted psychologist within our clinical network.
Your brain isn't broken.
It needs to be understood.ADHD testing with Dr. Joanne is the first step and for many women, the first time anyone has taken their experience seriously. Let's start there.
