ADHD Testing with Creyos at Core Self

Objective ADHD Testing for Accurate Diagnosis and Monitoring

At Core Self, we understand how challenging it can be to recognize and manage symptoms of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Many people—children, teens, and adults—struggle for years before receiving an accurate diagnosis. That’s why our providers use Creyos ADHD testing (formerly known as Cambridge Brain Sciences), a science-based cognitive assessment tool that helps bring clarity to the diagnostic process.

Creyos offers objective, computerized testing that evaluates attention, memory, reasoning, and executive functioning. Unlike traditional questionnaires alone, Creyos provides measurable data that aids our psychiatric providers in making a more precise diagnosis of ADHD and tracking progress over time.

Why Choose Creyos ADHD Testing?

  • Evidence-Based & Reliable – Backed by decades of research, Creyos uses validated neurocognitive tasks designed to assess the key brain functions impacted by ADHD.

  • Supports Diagnosis & Monitoring – Results are combined with a full clinical evaluation, medical history, and symptom reports to ensure accuracy. Testing can also be repeated to track improvement with treatment.

  • Quick & Accessible – The testing is completed online in about 30 minutes, making it convenient and stress-free for clients of all ages.

  • Personalized Treatment Planning – By measuring how ADHD affects focus, memory, and problem-solving, Creyos helps Core Self providers create tailored treatment strategies, whether that includes medication, therapy, or integrative approaches.

ADHD Testing for Children, Teens, and Adults

Symptoms of ADHD can look different at each life stage.

  • Children may struggle with attention in school, hyperactivity, or emotional regulation.

  • Teens often face challenges with academic performance, organization, and impulsivity.

  • Adults may notice difficulty with focus at work, time management, or relationships.

At Core Self, our providers use Creyos ADHD testing alongside a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation to ensure no detail is overlooked.

Ongoing Monitoring and Treatment

ADHD doesn’t just require accurate diagnosis—it requires ongoing support. With Creyos, our team can re-administer testing to monitor how treatment (such as medication adjustments, therapy, or integrative care) is improving brain function. This makes it easier to fine-tune your care plan and ensure lasting results.
