Question 1

What is the first therapy session like?

Accepted Answer

The first session is a chance for us to talk about what brought you in, what you’re hoping for, and what you’d like therapy to look like. You don’t need to prepare a perfect explanation ahead of time. We’ll start with what feels most important to you.

Question 2

What does therapy with you typically look like?

Accepted Answer

There isn’t one set formula. Sessions may be more practical and focused on what’s happening right now, or we may slow down and look more closely at patterns, past experiences, or what may be underneath what you’re experiencing.

Question 3

How often do clients usually come in?

Accepted Answer

Weekly sessions are common when getting started, but frequency can change depending on your needs, goals, and what makes sense over time.

Question 4

What if I’m not sure what I need help with yet?

Accepted Answer

That’s okay. You don’t need a diagnosis, a clear explanation, or even the right words to get started. We can begin with what you’re noticing and work from there.

Question 5

What happens during an ADHD evaluation?

Accepted Answer

The evaluation involves gathering information about your current concerns, history, and symptoms, along with questionnaires and clinical assessment. The goal is to look at the full picture rather than relying on a single test or questionnaire.

Question 6

Which ADHD evaluation option is right for me?

Accepted Answer

Both options include the comprehensive evaluation. The main difference is the level of written documentation you receive afterward. The Clinical Summary provides a brief written summary, while the Full Report provides more detailed documentation.

Question 7

How long does an ADHD evaluation take?

Accepted Answer

The timeline varies depending on the evaluation, how quickly questionnaires and other materials are completed, and whether additional information is needed. Missing or incomplete materials may delay the final report.

Question 8

Can I ask questions before scheduling?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. You’re welcome to reach out if you’re unsure where to start, want to talk through what you’re looking for, or have questions about services before scheduling.
