Understanding ADHD
Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neuro-developmental condition that affects a person’s ability to focus, stay organized, manage impulses, and regulate energy levels. ADHD is not a lack of discipline or motivation it's a difference in how the brain processes information and manages executive functioning. At Anew Psychiatry, we provide compassionate, evidence-based evaluation and treatment for ADHD in adults and adolescents.

How We Evaluate ADHD at Anew Psychiatry
Accurate diagnosis is essential before starting treatment. Our ADHD assessment includes a thorough, multi-step process to ensure clarity and confidence in your diagnosis.
-
Clinical Interview & Symptom Review
Your provider will explore your history, current symptoms, daily functioning, and any concerns related to attention, focus, impulsivity, or emotional regulation.
-
Standardized Screening Tools
We use evidence-based ADHD questionnaires and executive-function assessments to understand your specific symptom profile.
-
QbCheck® Testing (Objective ADHD Test)
Anew Psychiatry offers QbCheck®, an FDA-cleared, computer-based test that provides objective data about your:
-
Attention
-
Impulsivity
-
Activity level (hyperactivity)
QbCheck® combines a computer task with motion tracking to measure ADHD-related behaviors and compares your results to age- and gender-matched norms.
This test adds measurable data to the diagnostic process and helps distinguish ADHD from anxiety, mood disorders, or other conditions.
Your provider will integrate clinical findings + QbCheck® results + screening assessments to give you a clear diagnosis and personalized treatment plan.
