Evaluations for Adults
Gain clarity, validation, and a personalized roadmap to thrive at work, in relationships, and in daily life.
Our Approach: Compassionate, Individualized Care
At Doodle Diagnostics & Achievement Center, we recognize that adults often spend years developing coping strategies or masking unidentified challenges. Dr. Westreich takes a warm, collaborative approach—taking the time to truly listen to your lived experience and tailor the evaluation process to your personal goals.
Why Seek an Adult Evaluation?
Whether you are seeking answers for the first time or looking to understand challenges you’ve managed for years, a comprehensive evaluation provides clarity, validation, and a practical roadmap forward.
Even without a formal diagnosis, understanding your cognitive profile, learning style, and personal strengths helps you make meaningful changes across your personal, academic, and professional life.
Questions an Evaluation Can Answer
An evaluation may help answer questions such as:
Do I have Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)?
Could I be on the Autism Spectrum?
Is anxiety, depression, or another emotional concern impacting my functioning?
Why do I struggle with organization, time management, or executive functioning?
Could an undiagnosed learning disability be contributing to difficulties at work or in educational settings?
Why do certain social situations feel more challenging than they seem for others?
What are my cognitive strengths and areas of difficulty?
What supports, accommodations, or treatment recommendations may be helpful for me?
