ADHD testing in Seattle
Pacific Brain Health & Wellness offers ADHD testing in West Seattle for teens and adults. ADHD evaluations are designed to clarify whether attention, focus, impulsivity, organization, or executive functioning difficulties are consistent with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder.
Testing can also help identify cognitive strengths and weaknesses, guide recommendations, and provide documentation when accommodations are clinically supported.
What is an ADHD evaluation?
An ADHD evaluation is used to determine whether someone meets criteria for Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder and to better understand their cognitive strengths and weaknesses. Evaluations may include an intake interview, attention and information-processing measures, questionnaires, record review, and a feedback session to review results and recommendations.
For individuals seeking academic accommodations, evaluations may also include additional historical information about attention symptoms and functioning across settings.
Learning disability testing for teens and adults
Learning disability testing helps determine whether academic difficulties are related to a specific learning disorder. These evaluations may be helpful for teens or adults who have ongoing difficulty with reading, writing, math, spelling, processing speed, or academic performance despite effort and support.
Pacific Brain Health & Wellness provides learning disability evaluations for individuals ages 12 and older.
What is a learning disability evaluation?
A learning disability evaluation is used to determine whether someone has a learning disability, such as dyslexia, dysgraphia, or dyscalculia. The evaluation may include an intake interview, academic testing, intellectual ability measures, record review, information from other people in your life when appropriate, and a feedback session to review results and recommendations.
We also provide re-evaluations for individuals who were diagnosed with a learning disability in childhood and need updated testing.
Dyslexia, dysgraphia, and dyscalculia testing
Learning disability testing may evaluate concerns related to dyslexia, dysgraphia, and dyscalculia. Dyslexia is commonly associated with reading difficulties, dysgraphia with writing difficulties, and dyscalculia with math-related difficulties.
Testing can help clarify whether academic challenges are consistent with a specific learning disorder and what recommendations or accommodations may be appropriate.
Can testing be used for school, college, SAT, ACT, or workplace accommodations?
Yes. If testing results support the need for accommodations, we can provide documentation to help request formal accommodations for school, college, standardized testing, professional exams, or workplace needs.
Accommodation decisions are ultimately made by the school, testing organization, employer, or reviewing body, but a comprehensive evaluation can provide the documentation often required during that process.
Who do you evaluate?
We provide ADHD and learning disability evaluations for individuals ages 12 and older. This includes teens, college students, and adults who are seeking diagnostic clarification, updated testing, or documentation for accommodations.
What happens during an ADHD or learning disability evaluation?
The evaluation process usually includes an intake appointment, review of relevant records, testing, scoring and interpretation, and a feedback session. Testing may include measures of attention, executive functioning, information processing, academic skills, intellectual abilities, and related areas depending on the referral question.
After testing is complete, we review the results and provide recommendations based on the findings.
How long does ADHD or learning disability testing take?
The length of testing depends on the type and complexity of the evaluation. ADHD evaluations often include an intake appointment, approximately 3 hours of testing, questionnaires, record review, and a feedback session. Learning disability evaluations may take longer and often include academic and intellectual ability testing.
If accommodations documentation is needed, additional information or testing may be recommended.
