How to Get Tested for ADHD as an Adult in Colorado

What Is an ADHD Assessment?

An ADHD assessment is a structured process used to determine whether someone meets the criteria for Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder. At Axis Integrated Mental Health, our evaluations combine:

• A clinical interview

• Screening questionnaires

• Computerized cognitive testing using Creyos

Creyos is a scientifically validated digital tool that helps assess attention, memory, reasoning, and more—key areas impacted by ADHD.

Why Are So Many Adults Getting Tested for ADHD Now?

You’re not alone. Since the pandemic, many adults have started questioning long-standing struggles with focus, time management, or chronic overwhelm.

Many have found that:

• What they thought was anxiety or burnout may be ADHD

• ADHD in women often presents differently, leading to missed diagnoses

• Getting tested brings clarity—and a path forward

What to Expect from ADHD Testing at Axis

We make the process simple and clear. Here’s how it works:

1. Book your ADHD testing appointment

2. Complete the Creyos test—an online test that takes about 30 minutes

3. Meet with a psychiatric provider for a clinical evaluation

4. Receive a written report and recommendations

Cost: ADHD testing is $150 out-of-pocket. While insurance often covers treatment afterward, the testing itself is not currently reimbursed.

Do You Need an ADHD Diagnosis to Start Medication?

Yes. If you’re considering stimulant medications like Adderall or Vyvanse, a formal diagnosis is required.

That’s why Axis requires all patients to complete ADHD testing before we can prescribe stimulants, ensuring both safety and compliance with prescribing regulations.

ADHD in Women: What You Might Not Know

ADHD in women often flies under the radar. Instead of hyperactivity, it might look like:

• Overwhelm and burnout

• Anxiety and perfectionism

• Trouble starting or finishing tasks

• Masking symptoms to fit in

We take these nuances seriously. Our providers are trained to recognize how ADHD shows up differently in women and high-performing adults.
