Living with ADHD often comes with its own set of challenges, but you don’t have to face them alone. At Renewing Mindsets, we’re here to help you find clarity, build focus, and feel more in control of your journey. We offer specialized ADHD testing in Wynnewood using the Test of Variables of Attention (TOVA) to create treatment plans for ADHD.


TOVA: ADHD Testing for Adults and Children 

TOVA is a tool often used for ADHD testing for adults and children. This assessment measures a patient's sustained attention during performance tasks, providing valuable data for clinical evaluation. Explore some of the variables TOVA measures for ADHD testing in Wynnewood below: 


  • Response Time Variability (Consistency of Attention): Instead of just looking at whether someone gets an answer right or wrong, TOVA meticulously examines how consistently a patient responds correctly. This is measured as Response Time Variability. A high variability suggests that even when the overall accuracy might seem acceptable, the individual's focus may be wavering or inconsistent during the task. In conclusion, this "drifting" of attention, even in brief moments, can significantly impact sustained focus in real-world scenarios. 

  • Response Time (Speed of Information Processing): Response Time on the TOVA isn't just about being quick; it reflects the individual's average speed in correctly processing the presented information to formulate a response. This metric provides insight into a patient’s overall information processing speed. Both excessively fast and slow response times can be indicative of underlying challenges. Often, a combination of these tendencies can be present, further complicating daily functioning.

  • Commissions (Inhibitory Control and Self-Regulation): Commission Errors occur when an individual mistakenly responds to a non-target stimulus – essentially, reacting when they shouldn't. This type of error is a direct measure of inhibitory control, or self-control. The ability to inhibit inappropriate responses is fundamental to various aspects of life. Furthermore, it plays a crucial role in decision-making by allowing us to pause and consider consequences. A higher number of commission errors can suggest difficulties in this critical area of executive functioning.

Schedule an Appointmet
  • What is the soonest that I can be seen?
    The fastest way to be seen is through a virtual session, which we can typically schedule within 1-3 days. We can start both the psychiatric evaluation and the ADHD comprehensive assessment virtually. The first part of the ADHD assessment, the psychiatric evaluation, will be done virtually, and then you can come into the office for in-person testing within the next few days. Alternatively, you have the option to complete the entire ADHD comprehensive assessment in one visit to our office.
  • Do you assist with accommodations for school and referral letters?
    Yes, we do. At Renewing Mindsets, we assist with accommodations for school, referral letters, and psychiatric evaluation letters for individuals who have been tested with us and meet the diagnosis criteria. We have helped our clients with accommodation letters for exams such as the LSAT for law school, the MCAT for medical school, the NCLEX for nursing school, as well as the NBME and the MBE (Multistate Bar Examination). Additionally, we write accommodation letters for individuals needing workplace accommodations.
  • I'm located in State College, PA, or Pittsburgh, and I'm interested in ADHD testing, a psychiatric evaluation, or psychiatric care. Can I be seen quickly?
    A: Absolutely! We provide virtual services throughout Pennsylvania, including State College, Pittsburgh, and Philadelphia. In State College and Pittsburgh, we exclusively see clients virtually, which has been very well-received by our clients who appreciate the flexibility and convenience of accessing care from anywhere. Clients are usually seen virtually within 1-3 days. Through our secure portal, you'll have 24/7 access to resources, prompt communication with our team, and timely, thorough reports. We’re here to support you every step of the way!
  • How Does ADHD testing work?
    For individuals seeking clarity on ADHD symptoms, adhd diagnosis, or requiring accommodations, our ADHD Comprehensive Evaluation is recommended and offers a thorough assessment that includes both virtual and in-person psychiatric evaluations, followed by in-person computerized ADHD testing. ADHD Comprehensive Evaluation ($460): Includes psychiatric evaluation with computerized TOVA testing. Evaluations can be conducted virtually and in person. This is essential for those seeking an ADHD diagnosis, accommodation, or treatment planning. Standardized ADHD Testing ($255): The purpose of T.O.V.A. (Test of Variables of Attention) testing is to objectively assess attention-related difficulties, such as those associated with ADHD (Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder). This does not include a diagnosis but is to accompany a previous provider's specific request for diagnostic testing only. Accommodations: To obtain ADHD accommodations, a comprehensive ADHD evaluation is necessary, and we provide accommodation letters for an additional fee of $95.
  • I was previously diagnosed. Will you manage my treatment and medication?
    Currently no, we do not manage ongoing treatment and medication for previously diagnosed individuals. Our focus is primarily on conducting ADHD evaluations and ensuring availability for our new patients seeking treatment management.
  • Do you accept insurance?
