ADHD Diagnostic & Functional Assessment for Adults

Clarity, Confidence, and Understanding Through Expert Evaluation

Many adults go through years of stress, forgetfulness, or emotional overwhelm without realizing that ADHD could be the underlying cause. When symptoms of inattention, impulsivity, or restlessness persist into adulthood, they can affect work, relationships, and overall wellbeing.

At American Wellness Center in Dubai Healthcare City, our ADHD Diagnostic & Functional Assessment for Adults provides a thorough and compassionate evaluation to help you understand how ADHD affects your life — and what can be done to manage it effectively.

We combine clinical expertise with psychological testing to ensure every assessment is accurate, personalized, and empowering.

Who This Assessment Is For

This service is ideal for adults who:

• Struggle with focus, organization, or completing tasks.
• Experience chronic procrastination or forgetfulness.
• Feel overwhelmed by daily routines or multitasking.
• Have difficulty managing emotions, time, or priorities.
• Suspect ADHD but have never been formally assessed.
• Were diagnosed in childhood and want a current evaluation for adult life.

Whether you’re a professional, student, or parent in Dubai, understanding your ADHD profile can bring relief, validation, and direction.

What We Evaluate During the Assessment

Our multidisciplinary assessment explores both cognitive and emotional aspects of ADHD. It helps identify how symptoms manifest in different settings — at work, home, and socially.

We assess:

• Attention and Concentration – Ability to sustain focus and avoid distractions.
• Executive Functioning – Planning, organization, decision-making, and memory.
• Impulsivity and Self-Regulation – Emotional and behavioral control.
• Academic or Occupational Performance – Patterns of productivity, time use, and consistency.
• Coexisting Conditions – Screening for anxiety, depression, OCD, or sleep disorders.
• Personal History and Context – Early experiences, stressors, and lifestyle patterns.

The goal is to give you more than a diagnosis — it’s about understanding how your mind works, and how to support it.

Our Approach to Assessment

At AWC, we follow a structured, evidence-based process designed to ensure accuracy and comfort throughout your evaluation.

• Comprehensive Clinical Interview with a psychologist or psychiatrist.
• Standardized ADHD Testing Tools validated for adult populations.
• Functional Assessment of attention, impulse control, and emotional regulation.
• Collateral Input (optional) from family or colleagues for real-life context.
• Differential Diagnosis to distinguish ADHD from anxiety, stress, or other causes.
• Personalized Feedback Session with recommendations for therapy, coaching, or medication if needed.

Assessments are available both in-person at Dubai Healthcare City and via secure online formats for convenience.

What You’ll Gain from the Process

After completing your assessment, you’ll receive:

• A clear understanding of your cognitive and emotional profile.
• A written diagnostic report (if applicable).
• Personalized recommendations for treatment or lifestyle strategies.
• Guidance on next steps, such as therapy, coaching, or medical follow-up.
• A sense of relief and empowerment — knowing that your challenges have a name, and a way forward.
