These attention difficulties can interfere with performance and behavior at home and at school. If you would like to have your child screened for attention difficulties, please download and complete the following forms and then make an appointment for us to review them together. National guidelines require your child to be between the age of 6 and 12 years old in order for us to evaluate for attention difficulties.
