Maybe you keep watching a capable kid freeze at the starting line, or maybe you are an adult who is tired of being told to just try harder. Our ADHD Evaluations in Hartland, WI serve children, teens, and adults with a careful, individualized assessment, and there is no referral required to begin.
Each ADHD evaluation is anchored first in a cognitive and executive function baseline, and only then do we bring in the ADHD specific measures matched to the individual. One licensed psychologist runs the entire evaluation, start to finish, with no baton passed to anyone else. Because conditions like anxiety, mood struggles, and learning differences so commonly overlap with attention issues or pose as them, screening for them is part of the standard process.
In children this can look like short lived attention, unfinished tasks, and a body that rarely sits still. They lose track of belongings, interrupt before thinking, and treat the homework hour like something to survive rather than complete, which wears on the whole family.
For teens, the tells are often mounting procrastination, a disorganized backpack and schedule, and sloppy errors on material they genuinely know. Time management feels out of reach, emotions run big, and their grades quietly understate what they are truly capable of.
Adults may recognize a steady restlessness, a near inability to focus on anything that is not urgent, and a chronic lateness that persists no matter the effort. Follow through falters, impulsivity sneaks in, and there is that tiring sense of grinding harder than your peers just to keep pace.
We start with about an hour of clinical conversation, during which your psychologist builds a full history spanning your childhood through your present day routines and pressures. Those details point us toward the ADHD assessments most likely to be meaningful for you, so the testing ahead is purposeful rather than off the shelf.
Drawing on the interview, your psychologist tailors a battery of ADHD focused assessments. Testing runs about 2 to 6 hours in person over one or two days, and you leave with questionnaires to complete; those closest to you, parents, teachers, or a partner, can fill out their own to round out the view of attention and executive function.
Your psychologist brings the testing results, clinical observations, and questionnaire responses together into one thorough diagnostic report. If the evaluation surfaces anything else, such as anxiety or depression, those findings are documented as well, so no piece of the picture is quietly left out.
About two to three weeks on, you return for a feedback session where your diagnosis arrives with recommendations tailored to your life: usable strategies for home, school, or work, connections to therapy or coaching, medication guidance when relevant, and a clearly marked next step.
No, you do not. A referral is never a requirement at Core Spring Diagnostics; you are free to contact us directly whenever it suits you.
No. Our full evaluation brings together a clinical interview, a cognitive and executive function baseline, ADHD-specific measures, rating scales, and screening for conditions that can mimic ADHD. You end up with a nuanced picture, not a checkbox result.
Yes, adults are a core part of who we see, right alongside children and teens. Many adults arrive after years of compensating, typically when everyday demands finally overtake the coping strategies they had relied on.
We assess for anxiety, depression, learning differences, and executive function challenges, because they so often accompany or resemble ADHD and directly affect what kind of support actually helps.
You will have a plain-language report plus a feedback session with recommendations built for you, from accommodations at school or work to practical strategies you can put into practice immediately.
