High-Stakes ADHD & Learning Disability Evaluations

Precision. Clarity. Peace of Mind. Psychological testing with Dr. Jenny Shields.

Not all ADHD and learning disability evaluations are created equal.

If you’re here, chances are you’re tired of feeling dismissed, misdiagnosed, or misunderstood. Maybe you’ve struggled for years with focus, burnout, or emotional overwhelm and you’re finally ready for answers that actually make sense. Or maybe you’re preparing for a high-stakes exam like the LSAT, GRE, or MCAT and need accommodations that will hold up under scrutiny.

You don’t need another checklist evaluation.

You need an assessment that’s thorough, human, and defensible, led by someone who knows what’s at stake.

What Makes This Evaluation Different?

We’re Doctor-Led from Start to Finish.

In many clinics, testing is conducted by psych techs or graduate trainees—with minimal oversight.

Not here.

Every part of your evaluation—interview, testing, scoring, interpretation, and writing—is completed by our assessment specialist, Dr. Jenny Shields, a licensed psychologist with advanced training in differential diagnosis, trauma-informed care, and high-stakes accommodations.

No hand-offs. No shortcuts. Just thoughtful, expert-level care.

Whether you’re seeking clarity for personal growth, clinical treatment, or testing accommodations, this is an evaluation built for nuance and grounded in the highest standard of clinical care.

Psychological Assessment with Dr. Jenny Shields Is for You If You’re:

➔ Applying for accommodations on high-stakes exams (LSAT, GRE, MCAT, Bar, Medical Boards) and need documentation related to difficulties performing under pressure.

➔ A physician, lawyer, or licensed professional struggling with focus, executive function, or performance under pressure.

➔ A woman navigating perfectionism, burnout, and wondering if ADHD or Autism may have always been quietly present under the surface.

➔ A parent advocating for your teen (16+) or college-aged child navigating learning differences and academic challenges.

➔ Someone who’s been misdiagnosed, dismissed, or misunderstood—and is finally ready for real clarity.

➔ Diagnosed in childhood but now need updated testing for graduate school, licensing, or employment accommodations.

Request Your Assessment

You Deserve More Than a Diagnosis.

You deserve recommendations you can implement.
Too many evaluations stop at a label. We go further.
We connect the dots—your history, your strengths, your challenges—and translate them into meaningful, practical support.

This isn’t about whether you “have ADHD.”
It’s about understanding why life has felt the way it has—and what can actually help.

Common Misconceptions We’re Here to Bust.

  • Wrong. In adult women, ADHD often looks like burnout, perfectionism, emotional intensity, and a lifetime of overcompensating.

  • Wrong again. Many gifted professionals—surgeons, therapists, physicians—have masked learning differences for decades. The brilliance is real, and so are the barriers.

  • Actually, many autistic adults thrive in highly structured, high-demand careers—until masking, social exhaustion, or sensory overload takes its toll.

Need to Know the Documentation Requirements for Your Exam?

We’ve got you.

Here are the most common testing boards and their official accommodations guidelines:

  • Securing extended time or other accommodations for the LSAT or Bar Exam requires thorough, well-documented evidence of ADHD, learning disabilities, or other cognitive challenges.

    I specialize in high-stakes psychological assessments that meet the strict documentation requirements of law school admissions boards and bar examiners. My comprehensive evaluations provide a clear diagnostic picture, strong clinical rationale, and tailored recommendations to support your accommodation request.

    Ensure your documentation is defensible and meets legal board standards.

    LSAT – LSAC Accommodations Policy

    Schedule an Assessment

  • For medical students and professionals seeking test accommodations on licensing exams, detailed neuropsychological evidence is critical. Medical board review committees require comprehensive assessments that clearly establish functional impairments in test-taking environments. With expertise in evaluating high-achieving professionals, I provide rigorous, defensible reports that meet the accommodation standards for MCAT, USMLE, COMLEX, and NBME exams.

    Get the documentation you need to perform at your best.

    Schedule a Consultation

  • For students and professionals pursuing graduate programs or professional certifications, accommodations for ADHD, learning disabilities, or other cognitive challenges require well-supported psychological evaluations. Many exam boards, including those for the GRE, GMAT, CPA, and CFP, have strict documentation guidelines. My assessments provide the depth and clarity needed to demonstrate eligibility for extra time or other necessary accommodations.

    Ensure your evaluation meets board standards.

    Book an Evaluation

  • Colleges and universities require comprehensive neuropsychological assessments to grant accommodations for ADHD, learning disabilities, and executive functioning challenges. Whether you need extended time, reduced-distraction environments, or other academic accommodations, I provide evaluations that meet institutional and ADA compliance requirements.

    Set yourself up for success with proper documentation.

    Schedule an Assessment

  • High-achieving professionals with ADHD, learning disabilities, or cognitive impairments may qualify for reasonable accommodations under the ADA. However, securing workplace accommodations requires strong, evidence-based documentation that demonstrates how your condition affects job performance. My evaluations provide clear, workplace-relevant recommendations to support accommodation requests for law firms, medical institutions, corporate settings, and professional licensing boards.

    Advocate for the support you need.

Not sure if an evaluation is right for you?

Here are a few of the people we specialize in helping:

  • Professionals who’ve always coped—until they couldn’t. You’ve built a successful life. But focus, memory, and burnout are becoming harder to manage. You’re not lazy or broken—you’re exhausted. And you deserve clarity.

  • Adults seeking accommodations for high-stakes exams. Whether you’re preparing for the LSAT, GRE, MCAT, Bar, or Board Exams—you need documentation that’s thorough, credible, and legally defensible. We build every report with that standard in mind.

  • Those who were diagnosed as kids—but now need updated testing. You had an IEP or 504 Plan years ago. Now you’re entering grad school, taking licensing exams, or managing adult responsibilities—and need documentation that reflects where you are now.

  • High-achieving adults who’ve never been assessed. You’ve spent years overcompensating for something you couldn’t name. You’ve masked. You’ve pushed. Now you want answers—and a clear plan forward.

  • People who’ve been misdiagnosed or misunderstood. You’ve been told “you’re just anxious” or “you’re too smart to have ADHD.” But nothing has explained the full picture—or led to real relief. You want to dig deeper.

  • Those who need help—but also privacy. You’re in a licensed profession. You live in a state with restrictive reporting laws. You need answers without jeopardizing your livelihood. We’ll walk you through your options with care and discretion.
