Here is a list of resources if you’re looking to get formally assessed for ADHD, or learn more about neurodivergence and executive functioning.
ADHD Assessment (for medical diagnosis & treatment) across Canada at the Adult ADHD Centre
If you’re looking to get a medical assessment for ADHD, they are available at the Adult ADHD Centre across Canada without a long wait, and for a much lower cost than other private-pay clinics.
For self- assessment, or to help you articulate the executive function challenges you’re having, please click to view the Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale.
ADHD affects women differently. Women are socialized differently, and tend to be diagnosed later in life, which can drastically and negatively impact girls, women and AFAB people. If you’re interested in learning more about how ADHD impacts women specifically, please explore at www.adhdcentreforwomen.com.
I am listed as an ADHD coach & counsellor at ADHD Centre for Women/Professional Support.
