ADHD & Autism Psychological Services and Advocacy PLLC

"I filled out an insanely long intake form and poured my heart out about my realization struggles with ADHD and how I had little to no hope. When I got the email that the intake was approved, I felt a little bit of hope that maybe I could get help. The next day I get an email stating that because of the information I provided they're unable to assist me. I can't live like how I am, it's genuinely horrible. I even said in my intake about how I'm struggling mentally and it's not just depression and anxiety. My brain is loud and I can't focus on the task at hand when terrible thoughts invade my mind and take over. I feel so invalidated. I thought they were supposed to help people, but instead they're another disappointment. I wish someone could take me seriously for once. If they don't have the "current abilities" to take care of my needs, then close your doors."

"If you're an adult looking for an ADHD or ASD diagnosis I recommend you look elsewhere. I, like the other reviewer above with a low rating, am an adult who has thought for years that I have ADHD. I first realized this when I was 30 and I'm not 53. I now think it's very possible that I have both ASD and ADHD. I finally, FINALLY took the time and effort to fill out the extremely long and complicated assessment, which is hard for people like us to do. I shortly after received an online message saying that they were scheduled out pretty far, in which they advised that they would call when they have an opening. This was in July 2023. I have since reached out online to ask if they will be having any openings any time soon but no answer. They also don't answer their phone, so no help there. After all this time to finally decide enough is enough, to seek help with no answer or assistance is extremely frustrating and unprofessional. This issue is made worse because there is no mention of the backlog in appointments on their site, like doctors offices do on their sites. To me it feels like they read my responses to the questionnaire, including my responses regarding my race and said no thank you. Very disappointing and off-putting."

"I’m actually sad that I have to rate them so low, but I will share my experience why. First, I want to share that this is purely my experience as an adult. This does not mean that it would be the same for a child. That is why I did not rate them one star. The other reason I’m not rating them just one star, is because, when I first got in contact with them, things seemed very positive and hopeful. I have had struggles with ADHD, and some other issues throughout my life, again, I know which many adults have been through. I do not blame my parents, but things were not handled properly and a lot of my mental health problems. Got a lot worse over the next 20 years. I had actually reached out to my general practitioner about finally getting a diagnosis of a ASD. I have now been doing research about this for many years because it was the first time I felt like I could relate to any of the disorders, I was diagnosed with. I’ve always struggled very severely with communication, and got bullied heavily throughout my life. To this day, I still struggle with relationships, and have almost no meaningful relationships with anybody in my life. These issues got a lot worse as I got older. And I could write an entire novel as to why I am positive. I have ASD, but I am not frustrated with this establishment because of that. Originally they were very receptive when I would call. I have very severe anxiety because I don’t really know who I am anymore. I have been masking for so many years that I don’t even know what my interests or anything are anymore. So I live with a lot of anxiety. I called them and asked about coming in because I struggle with the computer. They had me come in and they were actually very nice at reception. They answered all of my questions, but they did not have the iPad there to fill out the intake form, and they just gave me a piece of paper. I heard no response at all. Nothing in my email no call. I ended up calling them and asking about it several times over the next six months. Nothing. I proceeded to go online and struggle to fill out the very, very complicated and not very user-friendly online intake with my doctors referral.(doctor tried to refer me twice) I spent months trying to get in contact with these people, and then finally got through to be told that they could not help me. I went to my regular doctor today and I’m right back at step one. I understand there are a lot of people that are in my situation, but this is an absolute travesty in so many ways to so many people, and I am very very disappointed with this establishment. Just like almost every single person in childhood, I was disregarded. It is really sad because this was kind of my last hope. I have lost hope over three years ago of getting any sort of help in. This was my last time reaching out. I’m not sure if there was a miscommunication, but if that is the case, I really wish there was a way of me finding out. The only thing I really wanted was an assessment in access to therapy that would’ve helped me and not hurt me. I’ve been going to therapy since I was 10 years old and it’s been nothing but pain in continual medication’s that have failed. I even had a doctor referral. My Doctor also has known me for 21 years. He’s one of the only people that has genuinely watch me grow up and he was the one that referred me. Basically, I’m saying if you are an adult, don’t even bother with trying to get an assessment here. My family still believes I have ASD, and it would be unhealthy for me at this point to deny it, because it has explained every life event that ever happened to me combined with my ADHD. I’m sorry for the long review but to be fair I put a year worth of time into this process for absolutely nothing so once again, I feel very very hopeless. Thank you to those really nice receptionist but I really think you guys need to either advertise that you’re not taking adult patients, or at least talk to somebody in person before you deny then an assessment. I can’t describe to the level of absolute devastation I feel right now."

"This place has been a great help with my 3 daughters with ADHD. We have been coming here for about 2-3 years now for parent therapy and group therapy. They are very helpful and knowledgeable. The staff is very nice. I recommend this place to everyone that is looking for help for their child(ren)!"

"It took my daughter a year to finally get in here but I have to say that since we started therapy on a weekly basis, she has grown by leaps and bounds! The staff here is very understanding and kind as well. Highly recommend these services for any child who's struggling. Don't wait! Get your child on the waiting list now if they need help."
