Kirsten’s approach
Evaluation that looks past the checklist
A thoughtful ADHD evaluation considers childhood history, present-day functioning, family observations when appropriate, sleep, anxiety, mood, medical factors, substance use, and previous treatment. Kirsten does not rely on a single symptom checklist alone.
What care may include
- Clinical ADHD evaluation
- Medication discussion and management
- Executive-function strategies
- Support for emotional regulation
- Parent or school collaboration when authorized
- Review of co-occurring conditions
- Pharmacogenomic information when clinically relevant
Genetic testing and lab work
Kirsten incorporates genetic testing and laboratory work into her personalized approach, helping her evaluate medication response, physical-health factors, and the complete clinical picture.
