Understanding ADHD in adults.

Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is often misunderstood as a childhood-only condition, but many adults live with undiagnosed ADHD. Symptoms like distractibility, procrastination, emotional dysregulation, impulsivity, and difficulties with time management can impact work, relationships, and self-esteem. This is especially true for women and AFAB adults, who often develop strong coping strategies that mask symptoms clinicians are trained to look for. Our assessment team is 100% neurodivergent, including specialists in assessing high-masking women.

An adult ADHD assessment provides more than a diagnosis—it offers insight into your brain’s unique wiring and empowers you with strategies for success and well-being.

If you’re looking for an “ADHD clinic Vancouver,” “adult ADHD assessment,” or “ADHD self-assessment,” you’ve found a supportive space to begin your journey toward better understanding yourself.

How it works.

Our ADHD assessments at Lavender Grove Counselling follow a collaborative and supportive process:

Step 1: Initial Consultation
  • We’ll meet to discuss your goals, concerns, and what’s prompting you to explore an ADHD assessment.
Step 2: Questionnaires
  • You’ll complete evidence-based ADHD self-assessment tools and other relevant questionnaires to provide deeper insight into your symptoms.
Step 3: Clinical Interview
  • We gather detailed information about your developmental, academic, occupational, and social history to understand your experiences comprehensively.
Step 4: Written Report
  • You’ll receive a detailed written report outlining the findings, including diagnostic impressions and tailored support recommendations.

We aim to ensure you feel seen, validated, and empowered throughout the assessment.
