ADHD Assessment and Intervention Plan

Clarity that turns “I’m trying so hard” into a plan that actually fits.

If you’re considering an ADHD assessment, you’re probably looking for more than a label. You want an explanation that makes your life make sense—and a next step that’s realistic.

At STG Health, assessment is designed to do two things:

You don’t need to be certain it’s ADHD to begin. The process is built to create understanding step by step.

Is This for You?

This service may be helpful if you are an adult who:

You do not need to be certain that ADHD is the explanation to begin.

The point isn’t a diagnosis. The point is direction.

Many adults come to assessment after years of pushing harder, masking, and privately wondering what’s wrong with them. When the pattern becomes clear—how your brain, emotions, nervous system, and environment interact—the next steps stop being guesswork.

Your intervention plan is built around direction, not perfection—so change can hold under real life.

A common turning point we see:

Many adults arrive saying some version of:
“I can do things in short bursts… until I crash.”
“I’m either all-in or completely stuck.”
“I’m exhausted from trying to be consistent.”

The “wall” is usually the moment it becomes undeniable that effort isn’t the issue—capacity and overload are.
Assessment helps us name the pattern clearly, reduce self-blame, and build a plan that fits your nervous system and your life.

About the ADHD Assessment

What This Assessment Provides

This is a structured, evidence-based clinical process designed to clarify whether ADHD is present and how it affects your functioning.

Your intervention plan is built around direction, not perfection—so change can hold under real life.

This Assessment is Not

The goal is understanding and direction—not just a label.

Three concerns people often have

(and how we address them)

1) “Will this just be a label or checklist?”

No. Tools support clinical judgment—they don’t replace it. We focus on how challenges show up in real life and how the pattern holds together.

2) “What if this proves it’s just me?”

If you’ve lived with years of inconsistency, missed potential, or emotional whiplash, self-blame makes sense—but it’s rarely accurate. Assessment is designed to reduce shame by increasing clarity: what’s ADHD, what’s stress/burnout, what’s anxiety, what’s overload—and what helps. 

3) “I’m already overwhelmed. Can I even do this?”

Yes. The process is paced and collaborative. Some people need fewer steps; others benefit from a more comprehensive approach. We progress only as clinically appropriate and discuss decisions with you.

The Assessment Process

(and how we do things differently)

The assessment is structured, paced, and clinically grounded. It unfolds in three phases, each contributing to a clear understanding and coordinated next steps.

Progression through the assessment phases occurs only as clinically appropriate. Some individuals may require fewer steps, while others benefit from a more comprehensive process. Decisions are guided by clinical judgment and discussed collaboratively.

We begin with a comprehensive intake focused on understanding your concerns, history, and current functioning. Rather than working through symptom checklists alone, we focus on how challenges show up in daily life — including patterns related to attention, task management, emotional regulation, energy, and stress across work, relationships, and home.

This phase emphasizes context and meaning, helping us understand what you’re experiencing, what you’ve already tried, and what you’re hoping to gain from assessment.

In this phase, we use validated assessment tools and clinical interviews designed for adults. These tools support the identification of patterns related to attention, executive functioning, emotional regulation, and related areas.

Assessment tools are used to inform clinical judgment, not replace it. Findings are interpreted within the context of your history and lived experience, with an emphasis on integration rather than isolated scores.

Information from the intake and assessment is integrated using clinical judgment to form a clear and coherent understanding of your presentation. Medical and therapeutic recommendations are coordinated when helpful, and always guided by your needs and preferences.

You receive:

  • Direct verbal feedback

  • A written summary explaining findings in clear, practical language

  • A tailored intervention plan outlining recommended next steps

Intervention planning may include:

  • Therapeutic recommendations and skill-building support

  • Environmental, academic, or workplace accommodations

  • Referrals or coordination with other providers, when appropriate

  • Nurse Practitioner services, including medical assessment, medication consultation, or ongoing medical management, if indicated

What You’ll Walk Away With

(the intervention plan)

Whether or not ADHD is confirmed, you’ll leave with an intervention plan that is specific and usable.

Your intervention plan may include:

Your plan will also point you to the right STG Health treatment path:

  • Option A: Individual ADHD & Mental Health Therapy (ADHD + anxiety/burnout/relationship strain)

  • Option B: Focused Mind, Balanced Heart (emotional intensity, rejection sensitivity, reactivity/shutdown)

  • Option C: ADHD Skills Management Program (planning, routines, follow-through that fits your capacity) 

  • Option D: Fully Tailored (a blended plan, for when you need both regulation + skills)

Following assessment, support may include therapy, skill-building, medical care, or a combination of approaches. Planning is collaborative and flexible, adapting as your needs change.

The goal is to support sustainable progress — not short-term fixes.

STG Online Resource Library

(Included for Clients)

As part of your care, you may also receive access to the STG Online Clinic — a secure library of over 25 self-paced courses designed to support ongoing learning and skill development.

The Online Clinic is not a replacement for therapy or medical care. It is intended to complement your assessment and treatment plan, giving you practical tools you can return to between sessions and over time.

Courses focus on areas such as:

  • Executive function skills, including task initiation, follow-through, and planning

  • Emotional regulation tools to support focus, stress tolerance, and recovery after overwhelm

  • Building daily structure with ADHD, including routines that adapt to fluctuating energy and attention

Content is designed to be practical, accessible, and flexible, allowing you to engage at your own pace and revisit material as your needs change.

Ready to Take the Next Step?

Many adults with ADHD have spent years masking, compensating, or pushing themselves past exhaustion. Our role is to help you work with your brain instead of against it—with clarity, structure, and compassion.

If you’re seeking clarity, support, and a next step that feels grounded, we’re here. ADHD assessment can be a turning point—not because it changes who you are, but because it helps you understand why things have been hard and what to do next.

You don’t need to have everything figured out to begin.
