About ADHD evaluation and treatment

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects attention, organization, impulse control and activity level. Symptoms begin in childhood, but many people are not diagnosed until adulthood, when work, school or family demands make the difficulties harder to manage.

When patients in Lincoln reach out

  • Questions about whether anxiety, depression or sleep issues explain symptoms
  • Reviewing current ADHD medication, dose or side effects
  • Trouble sustaining attention at work, school or in conversations
  • Disorganization, missed deadlines or procrastination
  • Restlessness, fidgeting or difficulty sitting through meetings
  • Impulsive decisions, interrupting or speaking without thinking

These examples are educational and are not a diagnosis. A licensed clinician determines the right assessment and treatment plan.

Our approach

An ADHD evaluation reviews current symptoms and how they affect daily life, along with childhood history, school records when available, standardized rating scales and screening for conditions that can mimic or accompany ADHD. A diagnosis is made only when the full picture supports it.

Treatment can include stimulant or non-stimulant medication, practical strategies, therapy referrals and workplace or school accommodations. Controlled medications are prescribed according to Massachusetts requirements, with regular follow-up to check benefit, blood pressure, sleep, appetite and side effects.

Frequently asked questions

Can adults be diagnosed with ADHD?

Yes. ADHD begins in childhood, but many people are first diagnosed as adults. An evaluation looks for symptoms that started early and continue to affect daily life.

Do you prescribe stimulant medication?

When clinically appropriate, stimulant or non-stimulant medications may be prescribed after a full evaluation, with follow-up visits required under Massachusetts rules for controlled substances.

Do you do neuropsychological testing?

Our evaluation is a psychiatric assessment. If formal neuropsychological testing would help, we can recommend a referral.

Do you see patients from Lincoln?

Yes. We regularly see patients from Lincoln and nearby Route 128 West communities at our Lexington office and by telehealth for eligible Massachusetts patients.

Is this an emergency service?

No. If you or someone else may be in immediate danger, call 911, call or text 988, or go to the nearest emergency department.
