Quick Overview (for ADHD brains)

If reading long pages is hard — start here:

• New ADHD and related mental health presentations typically begin with psychometric assessment (private-pay). Counselling/skills-based support may be added when helpful.
• Everyone starts with questionnaires.
• Everyone meets with Dr. Motamedi.
• Autism-informed screening may be included when clinically appropriate (this is not a full autism evaluation).
• If you’re unsure what’s needed, that’s okay — we’ll guide you step by step.

How this usually works (in real life)

Most patients follow this general process:

1. You are referred and complete questionnaires
2. Psychometric assessment is completed for new ADHD and related mental health presentations
3. Dr. Motamedi reviews results, confirms diagnosis as appropriate, and discusses options
4. Treatment and follow-up are adjusted over time

If you have extended health benefits, your plan may cover some or all of the psychometric assessment fee.

Introduction

At our practice, we recognize that mental health and ADHD concerns require a comprehensive and individualized approach. Our services are designed to support you at every stage — from assessment and diagnosis to treatment, follow-up, and skill development — at a pace that respects your needs and capacity.

Not Just Assessment, Not Just ADHD

For new ADHD and related mental health presentations, our psychometric assessment process is thorough, secure, evidence-based, and therapy-informed. It includes questionnaires followed by an in-depth interview exploring developmental history, daily functioning, and co-occurring mental health conditions. Dr. Motamedi then reviews the findings and meets with you to discuss diagnostic impressions and treatment options.

Below, we outline the main steps: Assessment, Diagnosis, Treatment and Follow-up, and Beyond Medication.

Assessment

For new ADHD and related mental health presentations, especially when symptoms overlap or history is complex, psychometric assessment is the standard and most clinically appropriate entry point into care. This allows for more comprehensive information-gathering while preserving physician capacity for diagnosis, treatment planning, and longitudinal follow-up.

The assessment process generally includes two phases:

1. Collecting Information:

Information is gathered using standardized questionnaires. Not everyone requires the same depth of information-gathering. Based on clinical complexity and care goals, questionnaires may be brief or more extensive.

• In more straightforward cases, a smaller number of questionnaires may be sufficient.
