TESTING & EVALUATIONS

Proper diagnosis of ADHD involves multiple assessments to identify symptoms and identify or rule out other conditions that could be present, or that could mimic ADHD. Gulf Coast Family Services begins the process of ADHD testing with client and family medical history, initial screening, parent and/or client interview, and parent/teacher surveys. Referrals are made to your general practitioner physician or pediatrician for evaluations of vision and hearing and general wellness exam to rule out possible physical reasons for presenting symptoms. 

Gulf Coast Family Services - Children, Adolescents, & Adults - ADHD testing and screening for other neurodevelopmental symptoms.

Referrals are made for psychoeducational, neuropsychological evaluations, and ADOS testing to the following practitioners:


Melissa Ogden, Ph.D., ABPP-CN - Adults (18+), psychoeducational testing

Laura G Goulden, PHD - Children and adolescents, psychoeducational and ADOS testing.

University of South Alabama Psychology Clinic - all ages and various assessments based on an application process.
