ADHD Testing near Byron Center
ADHD testing for Byron Center families and adults
Byron Center is where most of my testing happens. Riverside Counseling Professionals accepts the widest range of insurance of my two locations, including the MESSA plans that many West Michigan teachers carry and Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, which makes it the first choice for many families in southern Kent County.
Children from Byron Center Public Schools, Kelloggsville, South Christian, and Byron Center Christian make up a large share of the young clients I see here. Their evaluations lean on parent and teacher rating scales, school records, and a careful developmental history, and the report is written so the school can act on it.
Adults from Byron Center, Cutlerville, Dorr, Moline, and Caledonia use the same two-session process: a one-hour clinical interview and about two hours of standardized testing on the first visit, then a feedback session where results are explained in plain language.

What the evaluation includes
Session one is a one-hour clinical interview covering developmental, medical, academic, and emotional history, followed by about two hours of standardized testing including the TOVA and validated rating scales. Between sessions I score, interpret, and rule out the conditions that imitate ADHD: anxiety, depression, trauma, sleep disorders, and learning differences. Session two is a feedback hour where we go through the written report together. Full details, cost, and insurance are on the main testing page.
