Comprehensive ADHD and ASD Testing: Helping You Understand Your Neurodivergence
Many adults go through life feeling misunderstood, struggling with challenges they can't quite explain. A formal evaluation can change that by providing clarity, a path forward, and the documentation needed to access workplace accommodations and support.
ND Works helps existing clients navigate the evaluation process from start to finish. We connect you with licensed independent professionals who conduct comprehensive ADHD and ASD assessments using trusted, widely recognized tools. Once your results are in, we work with you one-on-one to help you understand what they mean for your career, your workplace needs, and your next steps.
Evaluation and diagnostic services are coordinated for existing ND Works clients only.

A Note About Diagnosis and Follow-Up

We are happy to provide referrals or supporting documentation to help you access those services if needed.
