Revive NeurocenterWhy depth matters.
When you or your child are struggling to focus, manage time, or regulate emotions, you want answers fast. A brief checklist can flag a concern — but a comprehensive evaluation gives the deep, accurate picture that turns a diagnosis into a plan that actually works.
Who should diagnose ADHD?
Families often wonder whether to see a pediatrician, a psychiatrist, a neurologist, or a psychologist. Here is how the approaches differ — and why depth changes the outcome.
Inattention, restlessness, and disorganization are not unique to ADHD. They can also stem from anxiety, depression, an undetected learning disability, or a processing disorder. Standard checklists often flag all of these simply as “ADHD.” We use advanced diagnostic tools to look beneath the surface and differentiate between these conditions — preventing an inaccurate diagnosis and the wrong treatment.
We don’t rely on subjective checklists alone. Our practice uses gold-standard, objective tools to measure exactly how the brain processes information — giving you concrete, data-backed evidence instead of guesswork.
What we measure, and example tools.
Our practice utilizes gold-standard, objective assessment tools across several key categories. The instruments chosen for each person depend on their age and the questions being asked; the tools below are examples.
Answers that help at school, not just a label.
When a child is struggling to focus, the right evaluation does more than name it. Our reports give schools the detail they need for an IEP, a 504 plan, or extended time on exams — and give families a plan they can actually use.

ADHD looks different at every age. So does our testing.
We provide expert ADHD evaluations for individuals ages 5 and up, adapting the process to each stage of life.
Children & teens · ages 5–17
Testing focuses on academic functioning, developmental milestones, behavioral observation, and classroom performance. We use comprehensive diagnostic tools to map out learning styles and collaborate closely with parents and teachers.
Adults · ages 18+
Adults rarely show the overt hyperactivity of children. Adult ADHD often looks like chronic overwhelm, workplace burnout, executive dysfunction, or relationship strain. Our adult evaluations focus on occupational performance and differentiating ADHD from stress or mood disorders.
Documentation for accommodation requests.
A brief doctor’s note can help with basic classroom support — but schools, universities, and employers require a formal, comprehensive report before granting accommodations. Our evaluations provide that formal documentation; the final decision rests with the school, testing body, or employer.
- School: IEPs, 504 Plans, and extended time on the SAT, ACT, GRE, and MCAT.
- Work & higher ed: Accommodations under the ADA and for board certifications and college exams.
What to expect.
How long does the testing process take?
A full evaluation typically takes several hours across distinct sessions: an initial clinical intake, four to six hours of direct one-on-one testing (WISC, D-KEFS, IVA, and more), and a dedicated feedback session to review results and your custom roadmap.
What should we expect on the day of testing?
Testing is broken into structured, engaging tasks with plenty of breaks to prevent fatigue — a mix of interactive cognitive exercises, specialized questionnaires, and computer-based attention tasks (the IVA-2). Our goal is to make it comfortable and stress-free.
Do you accept insurance?
Yes. We are in-network with Optum (including United, Oscar, and UMR), Optum VA Community Care, Aetna, Cigna, Curative, and Medicare, and provide a superbill for out-of-network reimbursement. We recommend verifying your behavioral-health coverage and any deductible for psychological testing codes before your appointment.
Do you prescribe medication?
As psychologists, we do not prescribe medication. We specialize in evidence-based behavioral therapy and non-invasive neurofeedback to build lasting cognitive skills. If medical management is desired, our detailed reports can be shared with your pediatrician, PCP, or a psychiatrist.
An accurate diagnosis is only the beginning.
Unlike standalone testing centers, we provide specialized, non-pharmaceutical follow-up under one roof. Our 15-Week Focus & Regulation Package pairs before-and-after qEEG brain mapping with 30 neurofeedback sessions and 15 executive-function therapy hours — turning results into sustainable, drug-free progress.
