What Is an ADHD Assessment at Flourishington?
An ADHD assessment at Flourishington is a structured, multi-method clinical evaluation designed to determine whether Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder is present, identify its specific presentation, and develop a clear, personalized plan to help you or your child thrive. Conducted by David Fowope, PMHNP-BC, our assessments go far beyond a brief screening questionnaire.
We understand that ADHD looks different across ages, genders, and life contexts. A child struggling in the classroom, a teenager failing to meet academic potential, or an adult who has spent years wondering why they can't seem to focus the way others do — each deserves an evaluation that considers their full picture. Our assessment process captures that complexity with clinical precision and compassionate attention.
Following your evaluation, you will receive a clear diagnostic formulation, a written summary of findings, and a comprehensive treatment plan that may include medication recommendations, behavioral strategies, referrals, and official documentation for school or workplace accommodations.
ADHD Presentations We Assess
ADHD Assessment Is Right for You
ADHD presents differently across every age group. Our clinically structured assessment is designed to capture every presentation — from the hyperactive 8-year-old to the quietly struggling adult who was never diagnosed.
Children (Ages 8+)
For parents concerned about inattention, hyperactivity, impulsivity, or behavioral challenges affecting school performance and home life.
Adolescents
For teens struggling with academic underperformance, disorganization, emotional dysregulation, or social difficulties that may signal undiagnosed ADHD.
Adults
For adults who have always felt "different" — chronic disorganization, job instability, relationship struggles, or a lifetime of near-misses that may finally have an explanation.
Previously Undiagnosed
For anyone who suspects ADHD but has never been properly evaluated — including women and girls whose inattentive presentations are frequently overlooked.
Signs You May Benefit from an ADHD Assessment
Many people with ADHD go years without a correct diagnosis. If any of the following sound familiar, it may be time to seek a proper evaluation.
Request Your Assessment- Chronic difficulty focusing on tasks, conversations, or reading — even topics you enjoy
- Persistent disorganization, missed deadlines, and forgetfulness that feels uncontrollable
- Hyperactivity, restlessness, or an inability to sit still and relax — even in calm environments
- Impulsive decisions, interrupting others, or acting before thinking with recurring negative consequences
- Academic or professional underperformance despite intelligence, effort, and genuine desire to do better
- A prior diagnosis that doesn't feel right — or no diagnosis at all despite years of struggling

Structured Clinical Interview (Patient & Caregivers)
David Fowope, PMHNP-BC conducts an in-depth clinical interview covering developmental history, symptom onset and duration, home and school or work functioning, and any previous treatments or diagnoses. For children, caregiver input is essential and formally incorporated into the assessment.
Standardized Rating Scales & Behavioral Analysis
We administer validated, age-appropriate ADHD rating tools — such as the Conners, Vanderbilt, or Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale (ASRS) — to quantify symptom severity across multiple settings. We also carefully rule out co-occurring conditions like anxiety, depression, learning disabilities, or sleep disorders that frequently present alongside ADHD.
DSM-5 Diagnostic Formulation & Written Report
Using all gathered information, we develop a comprehensive DSM-5 diagnostic formulation. You receive a clear diagnosis (or ruling out of ADHD), a written summary of findings, and a plain-language explanation of what your results mean for your daily life — no clinical jargon, no confusion.
Personalized Treatment Plan, Letters & Next Steps
Every assessment concludes with a complete, individualized treatment plan — including medication recommendations when appropriate, behavioral and lifestyle strategies, therapy referrals, official accommodation letters for school or work (IEP, 504, ADA), and scheduled follow-up care to monitor progress.
