How Objective ADHD Testing Can Help You Stop Guessing and Start Healing

For years, ADHD has been misunderstood, misdiagnosed, or completely missed—especially in high-achieving women and professionals who learned to "mask" the symptoms. If you’ve ever wondered whether your distraction, overwhelm, or mental exhaustion is something more, you’re not alone.

At Empower You Mental Health & Wellness, we offer objective ADHD and cognitive testing as part of our comprehensive mental health evaluations to help take the guesswork out of your journey. Because clarity is powerful—and healing starts with understanding what's actually going on in your brain.

Why Objective Testing?

ADHD can often look like anxiety, burnout, or even depression. And for many clients, they've spent years trying to manage symptoms without ever receiving the right support. Our goal is to help you move forward with confidence.

That’s why we use two key tools in our mental health and ADHD evaluations:

✅ CNS Vital Signs

This computer-based test evaluates key areas of brain performance and cognitive health, including:

• Attention and processing speed
• Executive functioning
• Working memory
• Reaction time
• Verbal and visual memory

Why it matters: CNS Vital Signs is a powerful tool used not only for ADHD, but also for assessing anxiety, mood disorders, and cognitive changes due to stress, trauma, or burnout. It gives a clear picture of how your brain is functioning and helps track progress or response to treatment over time.

✅ QB Check

This FDA-cleared test measures the three core symptoms of ADHD:

• Inattention
• Hyperactivity
• Impulsivity

It uses motion tracking and computerized testing to provide real-time data and compare your results to age- and gender-specific norms. The best part? It gives visual output that helps both you and your provider see how your brain is responding.

Why it matters: No more vague checklists or rushed evaluations. QB Check gives you measurable, trackable data to support diagnosis, treatment planning, and progress monitoring.

How It All Fits Together

At Empower You, these tests are available as add-ons to your initial 60-minute evaluation, also known as the Burnout to Balance Blueprint. This comprehensive mental health assessment includes:

• A 60-minute provider visit
• Optional computerized testing (QB Check + CNS Vital Signs)
• Targeted labs (if appropriate)
• A 30-minute follow-up visit to review results and discuss treatment options

You’ll also receive personalized guidance on:

• Medications and supplement options
• Lifestyle strategies
• Coaching or therapy recommendations
• Nutrition and cognitive support

Start With Clarity

If you’ve been silently struggling with focus, motivation, memory, anxiety, or emotional regulation, don’t settle for another generic diagnosis. Get the clarity you deserve—and a care plan built for you.
