Expert ADHD Evaluation and Treatment for Adults
Comprehensive evaluation and personalized treatment for adults with ADHD. Dr Alex Luna provides thoughtful, evidence-based psychiatric care tailored to your individual needs.
Understanding ADHD in Adults
Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects attention, organization, time management, and executive functioning. Although symptoms begin in childhood, ADHD often goes unrecognized until adulthood, particularly among individuals who have developed strategies to compensate for their difficulties.
How ADHD Can Affect Daily Life
For many adults, ADHD affects more than attention. Difficulties can interfere with work, relationships, and everyday responsibilities. Even high-achieving individuals may struggle behind the scenes, relying on considerable effort to meet expectations. Over time, these challenges can contribute to frustration and low self-esteem.
Comprehensive Adult ADHD Evaluations
Clinical History
A detailed assessment of current symptoms, childhood experiences, and the impact of attention and executive functioning difficulties on daily life.
Diagnostic Clarification
Careful consideration of conditions that may overlap with ADHD, including anxiety, depression, sleep disturbances, and other psychiatric concerns.
Individualized Assessment
An evaluation that considers your personal history, strengths, challenges, and unique circumstances rather than relying on questionnaires alone.
