Conditions we treat

ADHD

Inattention, impulsivity and the feeling of living on improvisation: adult ADHD is common — and commonly overlooked.

What it is

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is not just a childhood condition: many adults reach their diagnosis after years of struggling with focus, organization, deadlines and emotional regulation.

Proper care combines organizational strategies, psychoeducation and, when indicated, medication — always reassessed over time.

Signs it may be time to seek an assessment

How the assessment works

The assessment is clinical and detailed: history since childhood, current impact on work and relationships, and screening for conditions that often come along, such as anxiety and sleep problems.

When there is interest in integrative approaches, we discuss openly what science knows — and does not yet know — about each option, for a shared, safe decision.

Frequently asked questions

Can ADHD be diagnosed via telemedicine?

Yes. ADHD diagnosis is clinical, made through structured interview and history. When needed, we request complementary assessments.

Does medical cannabis treat ADHD?

Evidence for cannabinoids in ADHD is still limited, and that conversation happens transparently in the consultation. The treatment plan always prioritizes what has the best scientific support for your case.
