Women & ADHD: Q&A Philadelphia & the Main Line - Renewing Mindsets


ADHD testing for women in Philadelphia with Renewing Mindsets evaluates how symptoms present in girls and females for proper diagnosis and care.

Embracing Neurodiversity: Specialized ADHD Testing and Treatment for Women and Girls


Understanding ADHD in Women and Girls


Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by difficulties with focus, impulse control, and task organization. While traditionally viewed as a predominantly male issue, we now recognize its equal prevalence among women and girls. However, ADHD often goes unnoticed and untreated in females, leading to challenges in various life domains.


Comprehensive ADHD Testing: A Vital Step


At Renewing Mindsets, we specialize in comprehensive ADHD testing and personalized treatment tailored specifically for women and girls. Our team of female ADHD specialists meticulously evaluates the unique presentations of ADHD in females, ensuring accurate diagnosis and effective treatment.


The Importance of ADHD Testing for Women


ADHD tends to present differently in women, with less overt hyperactivity and more internal restlessness and inattention. This variation often leads to underdiagnosis. Thorough, multi-modal ADHD testing, including clinical interviews, rating scales, cognitive assessments, and input from loved ones, is essential for accurately identifying ADHD in women. Proper diagnosis provides validation and opens doors to tailored treatment plans, ultimately facilitating women's ability to thrive.


Tailored Treatment Plans at Renewing Mindsets


Our integrative approach to treatment goes beyond medication management, encompassing lifestyle adjustments, psychotherapy, ADHD coaching, and holistic wellness activities. We craft personalized treatment plans aligned with each woman's unique symptom profile, lifestyle, and goals. Our compassionate support empowers women to understand, manage, and embrace their neurodiversity, combining evidence-based therapies with emotional backing throughout their journey.


Recognizing ADHD Symptoms in Women and Girls


Consider seeking an ADHD evaluation if you resonate with common symptoms such as extreme distractibility, chronic lateness, low motivation, emotional sensitivity, and difficulty finishing tasks. Recognizing these signs is the first step toward gaining clarity and accessing the support you deserve.


Benefits of Testing and Treatment at Renewing Mindsets


Clients at Renewing Mindsets often report feeling validated, understood, hopeful, supported, relieved, and confident as they embark on their journey toward managing ADHD. Our specialized approach provides tangible tools and strategies to navigate life with ADHD confidently.


Finding the Right ADHD Specialist


When seeking an ADHD specialist, consider factors such as specialization in women's ADHD, expertise in diagnosing and treating females, referrals from knowledgeable doctors, and positive reviews on bedside manner and process. Finding the right provider ensures you receive the tailored care and support necessary for your journey.

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?
    Hi, thank you for reaching out to Renewing Mindsets. We are an out-of-network provider and do not accept insurance for ADHD testing. However, we strive to keep our services affordable, with pricing starting at $95. We accept HSA, FSA, debit, and credit card payments. Additionally, we can create a superbill that you can submit to your insurance provider for potential reimbursement. You can view our appointment availability and detailed pricing on our "Schedule an Appointment" section of the website.
