ADHD Evaluation & Treatment for Adults

The Affinity Center is an innovative center for the comprehensive evaluation and treatment of Attention-Deficit / Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), behavioral, learning, and mood disorders for children and adults. Effective ADHD treatment starts with an evaluation of your unique needs. At The Affinity Center, our care is individualized to prioritize your lifestyle.

ADHD is an inherited, neuropsychological disorder that affects approximately 3-7% of children. But what happens when those kids grow up?

Do adults ever “grow out” of their distractibility, impulsive behavior, and restlessness? Many people develop successful strategies to cope with their symptoms over time, which allows them to live free from the impairments that result from an attention deficit. However, research shows that as many as 7% of adults still meet criteria for the diagnosis of ADHD.

There are a few unique ways in which ADHD differs in adulthood, most of which are related to way the symptoms impact daily life for adults:

Two partners sit at a kitchen island with a stack of papers in between them. One partner rests her head in her hand, with eyes closed, body angled toward the other partner, who is speaking animatedly with arms outstretched.

Specifically, adults with ADHD may struggle to properly manage their time, commitments, or important documents. Conversations can be difficult, especially in larger groups.

These challenges often lead to conflict in interpersonal or intimate relationships, which then further exacerbates the symptoms of attention deficit.

Adults with ADHD may also struggle with sitting still and working for long periods of time without breaks. They often experience trouble at work as a result of these symptoms and may often change jobs or feel unhappy in their current job.
