HOW ASSESSMENT WORKS

What an ADHD and autism assessment actually involves

A thorough adult ADHD and autism assessment looks at how your mind has worked across your whole life — not a single questionnaire on a single day. Together we combine a structured clinical interview, standardized rating scales, self-report measures, and a careful developmental history to build an accurate, neurodivergent-affirming picture of your strengths and your challenges.


Because ADHD and autism often overlap, and frequently travel with anxiety, depression, or trauma, a single label rarely tells the whole story. We weigh how your traits actually show up at work, at school, and in relationships, then translate the findings into plain-language feedback and concrete next steps — accommodations, support, and a plan that fits the way you are genuinely wired.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Common questions

Is the assessment done online or in person?

ScienceWorks provides ADHD and autism assessment entirely online by secure telehealth, to adults and older teens located in Tennessee. There’s no in-person option — you take part from home or another private space, which removes travel and sensory overwhelm as barriers to getting answers.

Can you assess ADHD and autism together?

Yes. Many adults are both ADHD and autistic, and traits often overlap with anxiety, depression, or trauma. Our evaluation looks at the full picture rather than forcing a single label, so your results reflect how your mind actually works.

What will I get at the end, and what does it cost?

You receive written results in plain language, with diagnostic clarity and concrete recommendations you can use for accommodations at work, school, or licensing exams. We review fees and any out-of-network reimbursement options before you commit.
