ADHD Testing for Adults, Children, & Teens

Why Comprehensive Evaluations Matter?

If you or your child is struggling with focus, behavior, or school performance, it can be hard to know what’s really going on. Our ADHD testing is designed to give you clear answers—not just a label.

We provide a comprehensive psychoeducational evaluation that looks at the whole picture, including:

  • Attention and focus
  • Learning strengths and challenges
  • Emotional well-being (anxiety, stress, mood)
  • Developmental and school history
  • Other factors like sleep, vision, or hearing

A psychoeducational evaluation isn’t a quick checklist—it’s a thoughtful, in-depth process to truly understand you or your child’s needs.

After the evaluation, we’ll walk you through the results and provide clear, personalized recommendations. These may include:

  • Therapy or skill-building strategies
  • School supports or work accommodations
  • Behavioral tools for home
  • Treatment to improve executive function, such as planning, task completion, and organizing
  • Medication guidance (when appropriate)

We’re here to help you better understand yourself or your child and feel confident in the next steps—so everybody in the home can succeed at school, at home, and in life.

Anxiety: Assessment and Treatment (CBT)

Anxiety is a normal human emotion that helps us recognize and respond to potential challenges or threats. In most cases, these feelings lessen once the situation improves. However, for individuals with anxiety disorders, worry and fear can feel constant, overwhelming, and disruptive to daily life.

At Behavioral Sciences of Alabama, Inc., we use assessments to better understand the severity of anxiety and to track progress throughout treatment.

Our approach is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)—a proven, short-term treatment that focuses on the connection between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. By understanding and changing these patterns, we help you develop practical skills to manage anxiety and regain control.

OCD

Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is an anxiety disorder of the brain and behavior. OCD involves both obsessions and compulsions which cause people to have unwanted and repeated thoughts, feelings, ideas, sensations, or behaviors that make them feel driven to do something. We can help with intensive OCD treatment.

Depression (Including Teenage Depression)

Most people have felt sad or depressed at times. Feeling depressed can be a normal reaction, but when feeling helpless, hopeless, and worthless — lasting for many days to weeks and keeping you from functioning normally — your depression may be something more than sadness.

Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) is a cutting-edge and evidence-based intervention that uses a combination of talk-therapy and medicine to achieve results which may be difficult to achieve using only medicine or talk therapy alone.

KAP has shown promise as treatment for depression, PTSD, and anxiety. The use of ketamine in this context is off-label, and KAP has not yet been approved by the FDA.

KAP is intensive. Clients generally have one medicine session and one integration session each week for at least four weeks. It requires both medical screening, mental health screenings, preparatory sessions, and follow-up integration sessions. If you'd like to talk to a therapist to see if KAP is right for you please reach out to intake@bsoal.com or 256-883-3231.

TAI- Stress and Trauma

Understand the Impact of Stress on Your Body

Struggling with headaches, poor sleep, or constant anxiety? You’re not alone—and you don’t have to keep guessing what your body is going through.

It’s time to move beyond reacting to symptoms and start understanding the root of your stress.

The Trauma Autoimmune Indicator (TAI™) is an advanced blood test that provides objective insight into how stress and trauma may be affecting your immune system.

Using innovative biomarker technology, this screening helps:

  • Identify the biological impact of stress
  • Provide clear, measurable data
  • Track progress over time

With real data, we can better understand your needs and guide more personalized, effective care—so you can move forward with clarity and confidence.

The TAI™ measures key biomarkers linked to your body’s response to chronic stress, providing clear, actionable insight into what’s happening beneath the surface.

This data helps shift care from reacting to symptoms to taking a more proactive, preventive approach.
