ADHD Care and Support

Explore Our Commitment to ADHD Care

Compassionate, Neurodiversity-Affirming ADHD Care for Teens & Adults

At Arizona Mental Wellness, we view Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) as a neurodevelopmental difference, not a lack of discipline or effort. ADHD reflects variations in brain networks responsible for attention, planning, motivation, working memory, and emotional regulation.

These differences can make school, work, time management, relationships, and daily tasks more challenging—but with the right treatment, individuals can build confidence, resilience, and sustainable success.

CDC – What Is ADHD?

Comprehensive Psychiatric Evaluation

Accurate ADHD diagnosis requires a detailed, compassionate evaluation by a psychiatric provider. Our assessment helps distinguish ADHD from conditions that mimic inattention, such as anxiety, trauma, sleep issues, or depression.

Our evaluation includes:

  • Trauma or emotional stressors
  • Sleep, lifestyle, and executive-function habits
  • Family history & prior treatment responses
  • Differential diagnosis for autism or OCD

This ensures individuals receive the correct diagnosis and an effective, personalized care plan. For more information go to NIMH – ADHD OverviewHolistic Behavioral Therapies

Integrating therapy with medication, we help improve focus, organization, and emotional regulation for long-term wellness.

Stimulants

  • Methylphenidate
  • Amphetamine-based options
  • Extended-release formulations (e.g., Adderall XR, Concerta, Vyvanse)

Non-Stimulants

Q: What is ADHD from a psychiatric perspective?

A: ADHD is a neurodevelopmental condition involving differences in attention, executive functioning, and emotional regulation. A psychiatric evaluation helps determine how symptoms affect daily functioning and whether medication, therapy, or both are appropriate.

 Q: How is ADHD diagnosed during a psychiatric evaluation?

A: Diagnosis typically includes a detailed review of symptoms across childhood and adulthood, academic or work performance, medical history, co-occurring conditions, and functional challenges. This helps distinguish ADHD from other conditions such as anxiety or trauma.

Q: What medications are used to treat ADHD?

A: Treatment may include stimulant medications, such as methylphenidate or amphetamine-based options, or non-stimulant medications like atomoxetine, guanfacine, or bupropion. Medication decisions are individualized based on goals, side effects, and clinical history.

Q: Is medication always necessary for ADHD treatment?

A: Not always. Some individuals benefit from behavioral therapy, executive-function coaching, lifestyle modifications, or skill-building strategies either alone or in combination with medication. Treatment is tailored to the person’s needs and preferences.

Q: Can ADHD be treated through telehealth?

A: Yes. Many aspects of ADHD treatment, including evaluations, medication management, and follow-up visits, can be effectively provided through secure telehealth appointments.

Q: What if I have anxiety or depression along with ADHD?

A: Co-occurring conditions are common. Treating ADHD alongside anxiety, depression, or trauma often improves overall functioning and reduces frustration, overwhelm, and burnout. A psychiatric provider will develop a care plan that addresses all relevant conditions.

Q: Do you treat adult ADHD?

A: Yes. We provide ADHD evaluation and treatment for both adolescents and adults, with medication and therapy integration.

Q: Do you coordinate with therapists or schools?

A: Absolutely. Our psychiatry team collaborates with therapists, educators, and families to ensure cohesive support.
